One more lost ttem

[muninnhuginn]

Thank goodness for our virtual existence, the ravens croak, something they cannot currently attempt in meatspace.

We've lost our voice.

Now, bearing in mind current state of crapness, do we risk writers' group tonight? If the staff in Starbucks switched off the Muzak would we be able to make ourselves heard? We think not. It's annoying: we'd got all out comments ready before the crapness set in yesterday afternoon. In a better and poetically neat world, we'd have to atttend to listen to other folks' feedback on our stuff--in a non-argumentative silence.

Bah!

I frequently lose my voice, whenever I have a bad bout of a certain kind of cold. It's maddening, and uncomfortable! Poor you!

Can you not take your written comments, and distribute them in silence, whilst listening to others speak?

[muninnhuginn]

I could. But without my occasional clarifications my markups a tad tricky until the code that is my handwriting becomes familiar. So C would have been OK (I've edited him for years!), but R hasn't had the joy. It's also true that the discussion that develops around the comments generate more ideas and different perspectives.

I'm not certain I ought to be wandering across town running a high fever, anyway.

A high fever? probably not.

And yes, I suspect not being able to comment on others' comments would be maddening.
