Jason! Yes, I still exist. Have just taken some days off of the commenting regime.

What's going on with you? September 11th was your day to finish some kind of project, I believe.. How did that go? What was it that you planned to do post 9/11?

Also, what the heck is up with fschmidt? I saw his comment saying he blocked you, because "you're rude", or some weird excuse like that. Totally didn't make any sense.

N is for Node (@ 8m).

I was aiming for a couple projects to be shared on 9/11. Too much stress and disappointment. Ask Larry about one failure. After Canada's 9/20 election /s/LeverMind, /s/Projex, and a bit of SaidIt will be my primary focuses, not dependent on anyone else nor on deadlines.

I don't even recall what fschmidt's issue is specifically. He's quick to temper or steal offense when challenged. I may be crass on occasion, but I don't think I'm very rude or whatever he said. If I'm wrong it would be good to know about it so I may do something about it if inclined.

Maybe mildly rude on occasion, but you'd have to look for it. There's a whole list of users one would block before they come to you, so it's weird. I mean, you haven't even called for the extermination of all jews, which I could see him taking offense over.

Projex.wiki

A wiki for projects of any kind: blogs, DIY tutorials, essays, galleries, lists, manifestos, production development, project management, resistance organizing, resources, reviews, or whatever you think is a good project.

If you could harness whatever is giving you this ongoing level of creative energy... You might either do a few great things, or be very unhappy to not be doing the creative part you seem to like.

When I get Projex.wiki going, all of my future projects will be built on there, aside from simple info splash pages that will redirect to the actual Projex pages, in whatever state of development they may be in.

Regarding the letter 'G', have you read any Buckminster Fuller? The densest prose I've ever seen or read. Have probably lost too many brain cells to try it now, but I used to read and understand his genius. Now that the internet exists, it's probably even available online.

I haven't read any of his written work but like everything I've seen about him. I've improved his Wikipedia article among others related to Karlis Johansons, tensegrity, geodesics, parabolic and tensile structures, etc.

For at least a decade I've been looking for verification of a quote by him along the lines of "Waste is just a resource we haven't found a use for." I want to add it to Wikiquote and popularize it.

His Dymaxion Car was ahead of its time too, a precursor to the Aptera.
