Regarding the end of GPL at Reflections: Thanks to everyone who’s passed on well wishes. I’m fine, I’m pretty sure Ryk is fine. I’m feeling almost like it’s worth starting it up again at some point, although it likely won’t be till after August if it happens and it’ll be contingent on getting at least some local help hosting once it’s up and running, since part of my concern is about the 80 mile round trip drive to do it once a week and its frequent conflict with business trips. But I think we’ll likely do something at some point. We’ll keep you posted.

I’ll be in Scottsdale AZ next Monday night without a car. I know most of the folks from the area will be out at Nationals, but if anyone’s around and wants to hang out, I’m game for a light evening (gotta fly the next AM).

I’m re-reading one of my favorite books right now: “Finite and Infinite Games,” by James Carse. It’s a book of comparisons of the nature of game playing to the patterns of human behavior, both large and small scale, and includes a meditation on the true nature of good and evil. I’d love to say more, but it’s complicated and you really need to read it. Anyone else out there who’s read this?

How are you this evening?
