Strange. I tried it and all I got was a blank white screen.

Oh, I meant to do something about that this morning, but I was working on five computers at the same time and got distracted. It was religious Spam from an anonymous Guest, so it got deleted. We look at Guest messages from a page that lists only Guest messages, and we delete the anonymous, Spam, and contentious Guest messages from that page. That means we don't see the message in context, and that sometimes causes some oversights. In this case, there was only the one message in the tread, and that left an inoperable thread when the message was deleted.

Sorry about the confusion.

If you really want to see the Spam message, let me know and I'll send it to you.

Dammit Les, I opened this thread hoping for an absorbing discussion of The Meaning of Life The Universe And Everything and all I got was a complaint about a deleted thread! :-)

The Tree of Life Doesn't Work

Amidst the struggles and the strife
I strove to climb the Tree of Life;
Alas! it didn't work out well,
And from its top I headlong fell.

Now upon the ground I lie,
Gazing upwards to the sky;
The Tree of Life, that mighty oak,
Stands laughing at its little joke.

Maybe the blank white screen WAS the message...

I'm goin' to the roots.

That's where the best music is.

The branches are just opportunists.

Well, gee, maybe the thread was pertinent. The first reading for Sunday March 13 in the Catholic Lectionary was the Adam-Eve-Serpent story. Our priest had fun with it - he said Adam was a "wuss" for putting all the blame on Eve. The Common Lectionary doesn't coincide with the Catholics this week, although it does a great deal of the time.

Oh....different tree, same garden. They were eating from the Tree of the Knowledge of Good and Evil.

Come to think of it, it really WAS a useless thread.
