agreed, Kenneth, but what would have (not) happened if the list was not to
be wound up in 12 days time? this past six months or so has been critical
anyway with losing the likes of MichaelE and Anthony and effectively Allen
(never mind whether one agreed etc with them, they provided much and for
long) etc... with the possibility of carrying on with topica or something
else we are at least possibilising the rebirth or resurrection or whatever
of the list (you never know what might happen, nothing if it disappears,
that's certain). I'm sure we all have our explanations or whatever for why
the list has gone down somewhat since earlier days, but things go up, go
down and go up again...

Kenneth, with the list still surviving in one form or another, then we have
white-hope-rene available to curtly thrill us and perhaps inspire us to
greater heights (no irony); I know I have a whole bunch of issues arising
from his raps that I haven't had proper thinking time to respond to just
now, but I shall (if the list continues). Some like ThatPete might prefer to
go blogging, but I still love the possibilities inherent in conversing with
a possible multitude of concerned others on and around heidegger, his
thinking and works, and philosophy generally, and this list (whether waxing
or waning) still provides that incomparable blessing.
