I do believe that there will be violence. Probably some bombs in buildings. Probably some rogue shooters. Disappointed zealots taking revenge. Certainly assassination attempts.

Dhalgren?

Usenet?

Very helpful. Excellent methodology and presentation.

Me too.

I was at this concert:

Info that allows me to break through any of the "brick walls" in my genealogy research.

I was a staff studio photographer doing jewelery work in the late 1980s. In NYC. If you are old enough to remember the Service Merchandise jewelery section, that was me. Lots of other upscale catalogs too. "Successful" in the business.

There were hundreds of people willing to do my job for free. Many were talented. So the pay was minimal. Tried other careers, landed in computer work in the early 90s. Got lucky with the rising tide. Rode it until now.

DO NOT REGRET. Photography is a lousy business. Now I own a house in the suburbs. Wife, kid, dog, car, 401k. Bills are on autopay.

I agree. This poor schlub did a Google search ("no license or birth certificate") and a bunch of sovcit pages popped up. It's an example of why this shit is toxic to people in general.

My father always used to say:

"Last thing I remember, I was 18 years old, standing on a streetcorner with my friends. This morning I woke up with a wife, 3 kids and a mortgage."

I'll upvote again.
