Wade is posting on the postmorg!

[_why me]

I am glad that wade took my advice and is now posting on the postmorg. I hope that good change can develop from this. You see gals and guys, I am not such a simpleton. I want us all to peaceful and bridge the divide.

I'm sorry, what? You want to bridge what divide?

Just this morning I've seen you stirring the pot at MAD trashing exmoconf then also having some spat with Steve Benson while claiming you're a practicing Catholic.

I haven't been over there much this week, so what was he saying that was trashing the exmo conference? I'm genuinely sorry I didn't get to attend anything but the lunch on Friday. Every time I meet exmos, I realize that they are great people with interesting and sometimes heartbreaking stories. Was why me saying that it was the usual crowd of angry whiners, or what?

What makes you think Wade is going to be able to be the bridge? Personally, I think you just threw him to the wolves. Now all we can do is await the inevitable blood-letting.

Anyone got any bandaids handy?

He's doing fine so far but yes, I do feel he was sent on a mission for whyme's enjoyment. Same as Ray A.

why me's post on the exmo conference was pathetic. It demonstrated a lack of experience with "conferences" in general (of which there are many forms, professionalist and not) as well as utter insensivity to both the obvious and the nuanced at the exmormon conference: for example the lack of homogeneity on many levels among exmormons which makes that conference (as well as RfM, by the way) such a hodge podge---which is a good thing. Furthermore he also misses the important interstices in the program, the places where the truly important things go down: like finding amazing wonderful human beings with which to embark on emotionally deep, immensely satisfying, life-altering friendships.

His only point, runtu, was to find ways to declare it a "failure:" he was bored by a talk, maybe others were bored by other talks (I was, but at what 'conference' however construed does that not happen?), "sparse" attendance, people talking about their experiences just being a mirror version of testimony meeting (which of course is OBVIOUS to all and thus conducted with much irony as well as sincerity---often at the same time), blah, blah, blah.

Thanks for the summary. Apparently, for some people it's important never to let an opportunity pass for trashing the exmos. Good luck on that project for building bridges.

With Wade, no less! A less apt bridge-builder would be difficult to find.

My apologies - the poster sparing with Steve Benson was ohwell, not whyme.

My bad.

Wade is one hell of a diplomat. What other than good things could come from this?
