I want the front page as it always was, stories AND poetry. In my opinion, all new work should appear on the front page, regardless of category. Buttons to switch off either poetry or stories are fine by me, but it should be a conscious choice, not a default. I hadn't noticed those new buttons, so I missed a lot of new poetry and imho, that sucks.

Would you rather received helpful criticism in the comment of your writing or in a PM.

I don't really mind getting it in a comment, particularly when it explains a score, n the other hand, a pm makes it easier to respond and start a dialog.



How do you prefer giving your critique on a story?
Got a 1 scored on Eight Hearts without any explanation. No problem with the 1, but I'd like to know why.
The Voice Kids, Dutch edition. Amazing how incredibly good some kids are.
Hard to say, which is more famous, carlos santana or al jarreau? Met them, and many more while working at the North Sea Jazz festival and several other venues for ten years.


Same question..
I see the wolf too, beneath the skull. The face is top right, en profil, next to the skull.


Do you see it?
To be honest, no, I don't. Looked again and now I do.


Do you see the young mans face on that photo of Mars?
Yes, size would increase somewhat, but that would happen without implants as well, like any flexible object would, when the airpressure gets lower. The opposite happens when going under water. Explode? Unlikely, unless you'd ventire to where breathing becomes impossible, and airpressure approaches zero. Again, that would probably happen regardless of implants.


Would you join the colonization of mars, knowing that is a one-way trip?
Roland, pat him on the shoulder. It is impossible, to prove photons have no mass by any experiment mankind will be able to perform. Onthe contrary even, experimental science will show mass for photons, even if it is very little. And it may be true, that photons having mass conflicts with the leading theories about relativity, but in the course of history, so many theories have been proven wrong, or at least incomplete, the we should not assume, that we now have the theory,that covers it all. So all we have right now, is that established science believes photons have no mass, based on the theory of relativity as we know it now. Still, it is no more than that, a theory.


What is the funniest commercial you saw on tv lately?
Get yar smelly feet of me seamans chest and gimme back me spot!
Without any problem.



I can also write upside down, right to left, can you?
I love fruitcakes, yes I do,
But nontheless I'm moving you
Because you're using too much space
And because I want this place

Hey Shotgun011, if you ask someone a question, it's rather rude to block him. That makes it hard to answer the question, but it's the Big or the Mighty Deuce. You also denied me the chance to apologize for my mistake, because you were right. I did calculate the age of the ship wrong, she was launched in '74, and 2007 minus 1974 isn't 43 but 33. But since when is a calculation error a reason to block someone? I scored your story a five, can't you handle a little criticism?

If one mistake is all it takes to be blocked by you, you won't last very long, I'm afraid, because we're all only human here. But know I've returned the favor.


Hey Paul.. in all of my years online I've never blocked anyone.. how someone else acts doesn't control how I act.. IMHO it is just a precedent I never wanted to set.. besides it appears that his collection of avatars is entirely gender based so you don't stand a chance.. lol..
Hey Larry,
I'm not opting for a spot on his list, but I do like to be treated fair. People make mistakes, that's only natural. But people that obviously can't deal with that and deny another the chance to rectify his mistakes, are the kind I don't need scoring and commenting my stuff,even if I like their work.
Yes, of course that's possible, I think that's why people stop caring about anything and even give up on life itself.



What place has the happiest memories for you?

The difference between an asylum and a country, is that in an asylum the management tends to be normal.

I am not sure. Then again I been told, I have been a factor in several of my friends lives. It is weird.

Why does everyone suddenly like my poetry?
that isn't suddenly. Ive always liked your poetry and I don't think I'm the only one.
