I noticed that too. I try to stay away from there, it's spooky. Maybe it's just the pressure of possible syndication. Maybe....<P>Pauly<P>------------------

In said post you specifically asked nobody to bite, so I doubt you'll get any attention. Also, the only thing that the 'Space has to offer that is not offered already by the 'Spot is the nifty topical drop-downs. <P>I'm not knocking the quality of KeenSpace comics, mind you. I'm just pointing out that this "membership" you offer is of dubious value at best. You'd do better to invite select 'Spot comics to participate in specific dropdowns. I know CRFH is already on the Keen University (or whatever it's called) dropdown, and while my own <I>Schlock Mercenary</I> does not appear on the Keen Sci-Fi dropdowns, I'm displaying that dropdown prominently on the Schlock index page.<P>

We have invited spot comics. As a matter of fact, I believe it was posted somewhere on the keenspot forums. So Hey!!!! Do you want to join the Sci-Fi Dropdown? Ok, Maybe I'm not the one to offer, but I'm sure you could get in if you really wanted to.<P>Pauly<P>------------------

I was under the impression that the dropdowns were by request, not by invitation.<P>Correct me if my optimism is uncalled-for.<P>WhooT!!

My invitation was a joke. Irony, and all that. Kind of a reversal on the "all Keenspacers are waiting with baited breath to be invited to Keenspot" thing.<P>Pthbt.<P>------------------

I was just wondering what that IP:Logged stuff was in the lower right corner of each post.

"Truth hides on the other side of a two-way mirror
In countless documents sent straight to the shredder
That might finally give us the whole of the picture
But until the day we decide to dig a little deeper
We know that truth will hide
Under fallen rocks and stones
At the end of a disconnected phone
Down an unmarked street
And buried, deep beneath your feet."
- Asian Dub Foundation, "Truth Hides" from <I>Community Music</I>

No, I can't log on because it won't accept my Namezero E-Mail thing. <P>Oh! And the kneecaps thing! Sometimes you forget, but then there's the moment where you try to wiggle your toes....<P>At the same time, I was able to settle with the government on the pretense that Vito's work was the result of 'Nam.<P>------------------
