Do you find it hard to post without the internet?
I hate looking skyward and screaming my posts out.

Sometimes they make it here, sometimes they don't.

1. Parrot relay network, dude.
You tell one parrot, and it squawks over to the next one a few hundred yards away, and it squawks to the next one... it'll get across the country in no time.

2. I have posted without internet access
For some years I've been active at XT, a football (soccer) community. Between December and February I was admitted to the Alfred (hospital) and for the most part was denied access to a computer, of course. However, I would write messages on pieces of paper and give them to my brother who would very kindly relay them back when he'd return home.

These people are very dear to me and expressed their feeling with cards, flowers, recordings uploading to my iPod and a magnetic frog! (From a charming French lady in Lyon).

3. I can do it if I'm in the right state of mind
and I can hear the answers too

DU takes place in the sky above, lines and lines of threads that have depth, and emotion, and if I were to fall asleep with that mess on my leg I'd have burned myself to a crisp.
