Back from the beyond

Post – October 4, 2001

Xkot created a new entry page for his forum, outlining some basic common sense rules of conduct for his online community. It’s an eloquent and beautifully simple document about how to act online (and in real life, for that matter). Go there now. As the inimitable George Costanza once said, “We’re living in a society!”

    I just had to make sure I knew what that word meant. You must have gone to a private university. Anyway, thank you for quoting one of my favorite TV characters.

    Well, the truth is, I was looking for a word to describe George, and that one came to mind. But I looked it up myself just to make sure *I* knew what it meant.

    I love his “show me the door” link (metafilter) — how perfect. Just…perfect.

    Thanks you guys/gals… the whole online community thing is such a strange life form. Of course, it’s just humanity through a filter. Humans. What a race.

    I do need to give Mr. Blust some credit – when I wrote that, I had the name of his page, words mean things, on my mind. He’s right. Words mean very, very much.
