> Thanks for your post, it's much appreciated. It is a valuable contribution and I've more to say on the subject. Just wanted to say thanks and that I'm really glad we have people like you here. I'm up for some tilting at windmills if you are.Your welcome, Damos. When you are ready to say your stuff, you SHOULD! Our benevolent dictator seems to be open to hearing pleas, if not immediately acting on them.
I may or may not continue trying to tilt windmills. I'm kind of sensitive, so if I feel that the Admin board is getting too hot, I'd rather duck out for a day or a month.
I was just struck by this particular bias in the blocking system that seemed so arbitrary, counter-conventional etc. It seemed very un-pdoc-ish, and I felt the need to bring it to Dr. Bob's attention (as well as the rest of the community who hve to oblige by Dr. Bob's block length calculations.
> Hope al your works stuff went okay this week.
One of the glories of doing 5 days worth of work in 2 days is that the other 3 days are spent exhausted, stressed out, on vacation lol. No, in all seriousness, yesterday evening and this am is the first time I feel "like myself" in a week or more. I realize now that a regular, reasonable, predictable schedule is VERY important for my mental stability. (Cat helps too)
