Glad to see my oe/dialogue mailing list adventures have triggered some of my colleagues' sharp wit or deep profundity (or both)! I can say beyond a shadow of doubt (but expressing more of an existential stance than a belief) that the lists have in the last 48 hours experienced a painful, miserable death but then experienced glorious resurrection! Beyond that, your mostly humble list administrator has learned a few things, and further, has figured out some ways to back up the lists so that if the mystery similarly strikes again, we can recover without divine intervention. This optimistic claim must be tempered with the lucidity that the mystery always wins in the end. Tim

AND this year EASTER and APRIL FOOLS are on the same day. Chrystal and Suzi, from Jehovah's Witness, came by this morning to invite us to an event on March 31st -- a commemoration of the death of Jesus Christ. I asked about Easter and Chrystal said, "I'm glad Jesus got up, but what I really appreciate is that he died for us."
