I would offer you marmalade, but I buggered it up last night, it's all caramelised and crap. :cry:

Potential not-yet-happened undercover mutiny? I'm in! :mrgreen:

This could actually be really nice... better management, and none of the idealistic obsession with democracy that doesn't quite rub my tastes the right way... :shifty:

This would be a nice safety net to keep members from falling through the gaping cracks in TAF...

It's OK. I'm going to make another batch tonight.

I added sugar to a vigorously boiling pan, and it frothed up so much it boiled over and caramelised. Unlike jam, the pectin in marmalade gets destroyed when it boils over, so the batch becomes unsettable. :(

No forum's complete without the metal.
Is there for honest poverty
That hangs his heid and a' that
The coward slave, we pass him by
We dare be puir for a' that.

Thanks for setting this up Pappa. After current events, who knows what the future holds for TAF? :( :?: :? :dono: 8-)
Although it may look like a forum, this site is actually a crowd-sourced science project modelling the slow but inexorable heat death of the universe.

I'd hate to see our community of friends slowly disperse because of dissatisfactions. I know online communities are inherently transient, but I'm sure we can make it last a while with the right kind of attitude.

Apparently I'm here too (or so I'm told (the voices are speaking kindly today hehehehe hehehe)). I should perhaps change my username to "rationalia" to be consistent.
