I think her hat threw her off. Yes, I think it was her hat.
j.
Sometimes poets get a bit too much into poetspeak, too, doncha think?
I don't know what they're talking about half the time.
j.
Well, apparently everybody else agreed with our comments concerning the quality of her poem and hat. Ithought, fersure, we would be censored by the more literate and fashionable of your readers. But, no, silence is what we got which I take for agreement. Don't you?
j.
On the other hand, perhaps most of your readers are decent and wiser types. You think?
j.

j.
Do you have the feeling that we may just be the last two people in the whole world including France?
j.
No....I don't feel that.... I do think most people lurk and don't comment, though I wish they did...
Yes - that must be it. It's the lurkers you must start appealing to. Perhaps you could offer them an incentive - like an award or something like "The Lurker of the Month" with their picture and a short bio and the opportunity for them to explain why they just lurk through life rather than participate.
j.
Yes, it is more moving on the page.
