h2g2 The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy: Earth Edition

Dunx must be 8 by now as he introduced me and I'll be 8 on Thursday. Got through rather a lot of office computers in that time.

Hello Peta! I hope things are well on your end as well.

I've never been away. It's just that for a long time I've been keeping a very low profile here while working on personal issues. Recently I've started writing entries again ... one on Quiver Trees and one on Carrion Flowers ... and I intend to write a few others as well ... but right now I'm very busy 'irl'; I'll tackle them when things quiet down.

I'm still concerned about the state of the h2g2 community. It really seems a bit inactive at the mo ... not quite as vibrant, not so much chat, discussion, controversy even ... as in the past. I dunno, maybe things will seem better when *I* become a bit more active again! But I see that some other 'long-timers' here also seem to have lost many friends and seem to be experiencing a 'drought' of responses to their postings ...
