How Many will read and participate?

Unread post

I know this is a question that, if answered, brings on obligation. So I will set the choices and not ask for comments or strict commiments.Just want an idea of how many people actually will be milling about.Results (total votes = 14):I will be Reading and Participating!&nbsp12 / 85.7%&nbsp I will not be reading, but will try to chime in with opinions as I see fit&nbsp2 / 14.3%&nbsp I will not be reading or participating&nbsp0 / 0.0%&nbsp The one thing of which I am positive is that there is much of which to be negative - Mr. P.The pain in hell has two sides. The kind you can touch with your hand; the kind you can feel in your heart...Scorsese's "Mean Streets"I came to kick ass and chew Bubble Gum...and I am all out of Bubble Gum - They Live, Roddy Piper

I'll be reading and participating. On the way home from work today, I picked up my copy from the bookstore. It was the first hot walk of the season and I'm a bit overheated. Nothing a cool drink, a bowl of frozen blueberries, and a new book won't fix. -- Meg

I probably won't get the book for about two weeks yet.But, never fear, I will jump right in to argue and offer opinions from a position of profound ignorance.heh WW

Hey, WW, I'm with you. I never felt the need to have any facts on hand before stating my opinion. LOLI go to the states in the middle of Aug, so will pick up the book at that time. Until then, I plan to chime in anyway.Marti in Mexico

Men of my generation have a problem with commitment.....on the other hand I have read through chapter 6 and have posted a few times, so I'd say there is a chance I will participate.

Sorry I haven't been participating much. Things at work have gotten *very* busy, plus I'm going out of town for a bit. Hope to do better.-- Meg

I hear you Meg...I am just tapped for time. I can get the reading in...but putting together my thoughts and posting is suffering.I am taking notes and writing down thoughts, so I will probably have a day where I will add about 100 posts in the near future!
