My Recent Correspondence with God

Post by fern »

He told me this place will continue losing members as long as continue the stupid war about Ippolit and Rybka and in general all the hoopla and scandalous and prudish remarks about cloning and the rest.
This is- or it was- Computer Chess Club, no Vasil's Pals Club.

I believe you! A giant 60 foot road-side Jesus statue was just struck by lightening and burnt to the ground. God is mad.

No, but it is an appeal to the common sense of the people here.

He is everywhere but the legend says that code starts with 54 11. I was told.
With cell phones, that might not be true anymore. Particularly with the disposables.

Doesn't read like an appeal to me.

It reads like someone who is saying that he defends the IPPOs (which is his right, of course), and if people continue arguing against them, he will leave.
