Good to see that you are still with us Matthew, after something of a baptism of fire yesterday! Thanks for taking the time and patience to respond to all the points that were raised by posters. Have you had the chance to explore some of the other boards here? You might want to look 21st Century on the Music Appreciation Board or the Making Music board. You`ll see some familiar names there, I`m sure  Good luck with the project. I am still here, of course. I will continue to talk with people who have something to say and ignore those who have nothing to say. When i have some spare time I will explore the other boards. Best matthew |

Now if I could have learnt that lesson as fast as you I would have saved myself a very considerable amount of time and aggro...  Welcome, Matthew. |

The city is a process which always veers away from the form envisaged and desired, ... whose revenge upon its architects and planners undoes every dream of mastery. It is [also] one of the sites where Dasein is assigned the impossible task of putting right what can never be put right. - Rob Lapsley

I'm not sure that difference exists. I think there is difference in the world. perhaps it is safer to say there is less repetition than difference. |

If someone has a different opinion to one's own it is not necessarily true that they therefore have nothing to say. It is different, but just as likely to be a reasonable point of view . Just worth considering .

Indeed, A: were we all to hold the same views then boards such as this would be deeply boring places and virtually redundant.
But I trust we're all agreed that not only the boring but also the boorish have no place here: that the equivalent of clapping our hands over our ears and chanting loudly and repetitively that our view is the only only acceptable one and that another's is rubbish is behaviour for the playground rather than a place intended for civilised discussion. Once one side stoops to such tactics the chances are that the other will follow suit: that's human nature.
We all do it in the heat of the moment, but hopefully we can look back on it afterwards, and learn by it.

I hope you are not refering to me here Ron, I only stated ( at first certainly) my opinions on this subject and my own experience in similar projects... and my opinion on their usefulness. I certainly don't do any of those things you mention.
I just find it amazing how everyone, my so called friends included , now think I was just throwing a tantrum.
Never mind. I am logging off for the day. I no longer enjoy talking to anyone on these boards.

That was a general cap, A, a one-size-fits-all. I'm sure that there are occasions when we all need to wear it.

I was going to post some thoughts on here about this project in particular and my experiences of similar projects and non-projects (ie life experiences) in general. Also about my sympathies with SOME of the view points of ALL posters here. But... since I am neither going to 'rah, 'rah, 'rah nor grump, grump, grump I'll keep them to myself.  |

We have looked at the first message of this thread and if for a moment we may be permitted to descend to the vernacular we would like simply to say that it is total bollocks.

Well SGCrew, as you present so much here which fits that particular bill, I suppose you must be regarded as the 'expert opinion' on the matter.

I'm not sure that difference exists. I think there is difference in the world. perhaps it is safer to say there is less repetition than difference. I am inclined to the believe that we are, in fact, asserting exactly the same statement (that is to say: I disagree with you). We have looked at the first message of this thread and if for a moment we may be permitted to descend to the vernacular we would like simply to say that it is total bollocks.
Dear Sydney, we would be very interested in hearing what line of reasoning led you to the making of this assessment. |
