8. I hear they blocked that
when extreme flame wars were breaking out in there. I don't know though I've only heard. Before my time.

10. I think it was before my time too
I can imagine that flamewars could break out in there...I posted a request to have a post removed, and the OP posted a request to keep the same post going...It could have been a huge melee between me and the other person if that person could have posted to my request thread.

7. Are they, like, pissed off at the DU collective?
Or are they just hiding from the shitstorm?

11. Oho!
So they have stopped publicly answering questions in ATA and have started PMing their responses to people. I wonder if this is a permanent change...

Well, that's interesting, if a bit disappointing. I have always enjoyed reading their responses .....

6. Hilarious! (Isn't 'Skinner in a Well' a euphemism?)

Don't reply to this! I don't want it to become a you-know-what thread!

13. Song From The Bottom Of A Well
Edited on Sun Apr-24-05 12:13 AM by norml
This is a song from the bottom of a well
There are things down here
I've got to try and tell;
It's dark and light at the very same time,
The water sometimes seems like wine.

I learned some information way down here
That might fill your heart and soul with fear;
But don't you worry, no don't be afraid ...
Im not in the magical mystery trade.

My imagination begins to purr
As things don't happen, they just occur.
Softly crackling electrical smell,
There's something burning at the bottom of this well.

Sitting here alone I just have to laugh
I see all the universe as a comfortable bath;
I drown my body so my mind is free
To indulge in pleasurable fantasies.

There's something strange going on down here ..
A sickening implosion of mistrust and fear.
A vast corruption that's about to boil
A mixture of greed and the smell of oil.

This is a song from the bottom of a well
I didn't move here, I just fell.
But I'm not complaining, I don't even care
'Cause if I'm not here, then it's not there.

19. Cried?! What the heck did they do?
They didn't pull an 'old yeller' on the audience and shoot the pooch, did they? :wow:
