Hello esteemed monks and nerds out there. I post this anonymously because my computer blew out yesterday,
and instead of fixing it, or wasteing bucks on another,
I decided to let the computer go. I take this cosmic ray
hit on my computer, as a sign from God, that wasteing time
on the illusion of programming, is just part of Maya, the Great
Illusion. It was great fun and all, and taught me alot, but I'm not
staying on this planet, and if the karma associated with computers is bad, then getting rid of my computer is good.
So, I'm not dead, I'm not fading or slowly iterrating away,
I just don't see value in wasting time on an illusion.
So, as final advice, zentara says seek the Vaikunthas, and remember, I'm not ignoring posts, but if God takes your computer
away, what can you do? :-)

Quoting Rolf Schott (one of the "burned poets" of germany):
In life, you lose only that which to lose is a gain.
Nevertheless I will miss you, whom I have not lost :-)
Namaste, zentara.

If that's not a fake please log in one last time to help us believe it. :)
PM has the feature of mailing forgotten passwords.
(I hope you didn't loose your mail account too and are trying to commit digital suicide? ;)

Of course all is an illusion, but I always wondered why any god would speak to us in such riddles and not simply send us a letter or an email expressing his commands.

Very well said! But for messages of that alleged importance,I'd only trust some certified email.

I think that the sign from God, is that you have to buy a better computer so you can continue your mission to disseminate your knowledge. :)
I know I will miss your posts regarding Tk and GUI programming. Thank you!
Best regards, Stefan

What a waste of useful intelligence, to surrender it to mindless superstition!
