No. I tried really hard with Jay Watson, but he just refused to listen to anybody.

Has what others have posted here made a positive impact on your life?
Not yet. But I have learned a lot and "some day" I will act on what I've learned. I think the key to that is to stop abusing the internet. That I think is the first step to my becoming healthy. The internet is my crack cocaine.

Are you just here for entertainment and don't care either way?
For the most part, yes. A large part of what I post has an element of sarcasm and is me acting different from how I act in real life. For an example see my first post in this thread. I like getting attention, and that is why I am addicted to the internet. It's the only way I can draw attention to a "persona" of mine, and not have me myself the real me being judged by others. As I said, it is my crack cocaine.

No, Davros. I do not put you in those ranks. I'm not so certain the good women of CD do either.


Of course, I could have missed a few of your threads.

Thank you. But, yes, you probably have missed a few of my threads, including possibly my most recent one.

I would not say impact but I assign a lot of value to what Lovesmountains and Djuna have to say. Two different viewpoints but I think both are consistant in their posts and both have a good a moral(for lack of a better word) compass. I really value the posts that make me stop and rethink my position (relates to many topics). I also appreciate Raena's extremely quick Wit on almost any topic

The real use of C-D is in the state and city boards.
Good luck in your job hunt.
