Hi, I'm Marie, and I'm surfing Google groups because I know that the
people who join them will be interested in visiting my website, and
there's really no other way they would hear about it.

I am a Canadian writer and I have a website with some written works,
news feeds, biographical information and various other things I think
are just neat.

Please visit me: http://www.mariealighieri.com

Thanks, Marie.

So, you think these groups belong to Google?

This is probably an attempt by the DOJ to track the Google searches
people do. They assume metalworkers won't see through their poor
attempts to lure us to one of their fake web sites!

It is more that you think this is a google group, but it is actually a
usenet news group that predates not only google but general use of the
internet.

And second as the news group name suggests, this is a group for
discussion of metal working by amatuers. I don't think your article on
the Canadian Election touches on using a Lathe or a Mill, etc. We
aren't thrilled about messages about quilting, but at least that is a
craft. Our interest in physiognomy tends to lean toward those bumps
caused by hammers, and how to avoid getting them.

Not to worry. Of all the things in this world that are not worth anyone's
waste of time, the subjects I was referring to in my wisecrack are at the
top of the list. g

Post-modernist literary critique is for people with a lot of time on their
hands and nowhere to go. Think of it as the opposite culture from the one we
have here.

I gave Marie a gentle tweak. If she follows it, she'll realize it was a
joke.

We all could use some of that. Most of us here have lathes, and we're always
curious about their effects on our psyches. They tend to make us want to
build steam engines or wildcat rifles, etc., and we don't know why.

Well, the culture part is easy. When someone does a deconstruction or other
post-modernist critique of literature, you can count on their concluduing
two things: First, the author did not say what he thinks he said. Second, if
the author is a white male, the true meaning of the writing involves
suppression of minorities and/or women.

It's easy if you keep those two things in mind.
