- "Hey there Q, and 13 too!
TS: they changed the name of cell phone to smart phone just to fool us (I bet you thought a "cell" was just an area of coverage too :)
Cheers all! - Dan"

- "Reminds me of a segment from Bill Burr’s most recent Netflix special... It may happen...how could reality ever compete with the subservient creation designed to perfectly appeal to our lizard brain? The machines may indeed $&@% us out of existence. :) Ciao, T/S "

- "Yes, sit back and trust the experts, their algorithms are all so accurate and all knowing...sixty percent of the time they are right every time... Every time I see that smug POS from Google, I want to slap him. :) Those are
the current types of fingers moving the puppets (muppets) in the admin state. I also thought the idea of the tracking app, so cheerfully and innocently introduced, was noteworthy in a quietly horrifying kind of way. Ah, well... We have come to bury liberty, dwells, not praise it. Ciao, T/S"

- "I was intrigued by your title and pondered, at length, its application to my perceived ideology of it's content. Maybe this is merely a direct response to some internal conflict regarding a short piece i will be submitting to this site of the same title (I do so love the word "schism"). Eventually I came to realize that I enjoyed your piece simply for its occupation of my mind...thanks. tonebone"

- "Hi VR and so good to be back!
I see that my anonymous detractor is still lurking out there; after an absence of almost one year (gave me another "2" on these tercets in ABC monorhyme).
In truth, it was a bit of a jumble.
Be well my friend and cheers! - Dan"

- "This is an excellent piece with lots of quotable lines, although my favorite is “The Deluge came as just another showerâ€...lots of wisdom in that. It never seems like a big deal until it is. Drop...drop...drop...flood. Also I am a sucker for any allusion to Babylon… I took a course recently where they related an event in Which a later Syrian king diverted one of the rivers to flood Babylon in order to completely destroy it because he could not control its inhabitants to his satisfaction. Later, this kings own son assassinated him and used money from the treasury to rebuild the famed city. The cruelty and waste and squandered potential contained at every level of that story were exceedingly sad and I think relevant to your theme. Great work! Ciao, T/S "
