Things are developing at Hypatia's garden. Right now there is a discussion about ... well, you've already read the headline. So, if you're interested, please go to Hypatia's Garden
I'm happy to tell you, the DNS issues from around lunchtime CET today are solved now. I also fixed a few mistakes at the forum software itself. I hope everything is now running smoothly.
I'm very sorry having to tell you, that since 12:00 CET there are issues finding Hypatia's Garden. As far as I know, it's a DNS issues somewhere along the line. The server itself is still working nicely.
So as it unfortunately is out of our sphere of influence, I hope it will be resolved soon.
a few weeks ago Angharad posted a very interesting question about transsexual people and terrorists. Unfortunately that discussion was stopped very early. I guess it was to avoid any flaming which surely would have come soon.
But like I said, it would have been very interesting to discuss that matter a bit further. I came to the conclusion that this site might probably not the best place to persuade such a philosophical exchange.
If there is any interest in having such discussions in depth, I'd like to provide a forum for that.
There will be of course rules to avoid unneccessary flaming or even hatred.
I was watching one of my favourite series again - CSI Las Vegas. At the end Gil Grissom said something very important I think. 'Men assume, they don't ask about the why. ... It took five people to murder one person, but if only one had asked why he did what he was doing, why he felt unwell, he might have been still alive.'
only a few of you might have noticed yet - Gabyzone.com is back! Not in it's full glory, but other then loosing the changes from February to May not much happend. So it's about time to regularly check for updates there too.
For anyone wondering what happened to cyberbrats chatnet, which is home to the gabyzone channel, please note there are only name service issues. Chatnet itself is still online and running. For anyone wanting to get in, please use 88.198.48.47. This is one of the european servers of CyberBrats Chatnet.
The usual warnings first — yes while being in England I could improve my English a little bit, but it’s still not what I would like it to be.
Anyway, the last seven days being with my kind hosts end even better friends Karen and Samantha were really a very nice experience for me. From Tuesday evening on was the girl I think I was supposed to be all my life. I was shown how to do my makeup, I was told about all the issues with being transgendered and yet I had the best time of my life.
