Hi all,

I'd like to extend my best wishes to every one in this community and their loved ones during this period when reality is following some dystopic science fiction scenario...

I recently received the following message from Hyperplan's developer Andy Brice, with which I fully agree. ( @ Andy: I hope you don't mind me sharing it here )

"While nobody wants a pandemic, lets remember that we are all in this together and try to salvage something positive from the experience. Personally, I hope it will lead to stronger communities, more international cooperation and more appreciation for the delivery drivers, cleaners and other unsung heroes who are keeping society functioning."

Alexander

Well said, Alexander and Andy!

It’s certainly a useful opportunity to reflect on what really matters to us all.

Take care, everyone!

When the apocalypse is upon us I will probably still be trying to find the perfect outlining app to record the last days ...

stay safe everyone!

Will probably want to avoid a cloud-based solution though -- the internet might become unreliable :-)

Wash your hands -- keep your distance -- and stay safe, everyone.

Well said by all! I, too, hope for positive changes to come, and in the meantime I try to be grateful for what I have now.

Stay safe,

As a cloud-fan, I reluctantly agree: alcohol-based solutions are much more effective in this case

I'll drink to that!

Hear, hear, and cheers to all. My hope for this time is that there is some small recognition that facts exist and knowledge matters. At which point, outliners are bound be useful.


Said Joseph Campbell, "There is a time for Buddhist meditation, and there is a time for Irish whiskey." Perhaps this is a time for both.

I like your thinking Dr Andus. When the end of days come, there's no better outliner than Jack Daniels.

I was talking about hand sanitizers, but I'm not going to judge ;)

A senior figure in the British Government not long ago said:

"people in this country have had enough of experts”

Hopefully the pandemic will show how essential experts and institutions are.

In the meantime some morons are burning down cell phone towers because they think 5G causes COVID19.

Best to plan ahead, as things will not be back to "normal" for a couple of years.

I know this is as off-topic as it gets, but it's been done by a sister agency and I found it really good for these times:

Stay safe everyone. The year is going to be a rough ride. Hopefully 2021 will start a bit better.
Meanwhile, the CRIMP virus seems to be harmless so far :-))

Wot, you mean apart from sucking away all Robert Luke’s money… ;-)

Stay safe and healthy, everyone!
