I just went through (extract for picosaurs) all my posts in this topic and I found I had never introduced myself. So here follows my .plan. This agglomeration of words defines me in the same way as the sum of the blind men's observations defines an elephant:

My interests include Meher Baba, spirituality, dogs, system administration & music. Co-host of <gratitude.ind.> and <islam.ind.>. Webmaster for our local dog owners group http://www.wcdog.org

My wife arranges tours of North America for celtic and folk musicians. http://www.nancycarlinassociates.com She also works for the Lute Society of America: http://www.cs.dartmouth.edu/~lsa/index.html

Some favorite buttons from http://www.nancybuttons.com/

If you're going to walk on thin ice, you might as well DANCE.

Human speech is like a cracked kettle on which we tap crude rhythms for bears to dance to, while we long to make music which will melt the stars.

God created music so people can pray without words.

Shit happens but it also makes things grow.

Don't worry. Be silly. [Read entire topic]

No one has introduced themselves here in over two years? I just came back to this conference because I ran out of new topics and am bored at work. It was a nice read-through from R:0, but I've already introduced myself a few times.

Thought I'd move this one up on the topics list for someone to say hi who maybe hasn't introduced themselves yet. or not. [Read entire topic]
