Thanks for the connection, I am pleased to connect with anyone, though I may ignore them over time, You will get the occasional message from me asking that you read some particular rant or article of substance.

I would like to have you join Unified Individualists and Recommended Reading but mostly because I own those two. I also own Haiku for Two, where people are asked to present poetry in the ancient Japanese form. Three lines, five syllables in the first and third, and seven in the middle.
