Well, that makes it the equivalent of 17 €, so you're back in RAWland at least until the phases shift or the Fnords attack.

To be fair, if you aren't very interested in Russia/Georgia or Israel/Palestine, there wasn't much to see here lately...

(bring your own diary).

We must be doing something wrong these days, because the range of topics in the diaries has been shrinking. Are we discouraging people from writing about non-compliant stuff?

Maybe it's just a combo of all the Europeans being on vacation and all the Americans wrapped up in the election?

I think the site has also take a slightly ... er, negative turn.  That's my own personal opinion and no one has to share it.  But a lot of the diaries are unbelievably antagonistic and nihilistic and obsessed with bad news and horrible events and blame.  So much blaming.  Even bullying.  That's just my perspective.

Not to mention you've all kinda stopped promoting things to the fp.

Yes.  rg, if you're listening, this call for your attention is being sent out in 11/4 time, in C minor modal.  Please don't leave us waiting for new videos from Sibelius or Partch.
