I didn't freak out... I just can't stand it! I am so grateful for the panic room!

4. Freaked out might have been a bit extreme...

Edited on Sat Feb-03-07 12:52 AM by LibInTexas

But, I think it's interesting to see the ditch we might have to go into to meet up.

3. I didn't, I went looking for Documentaries I have yet to see on Google video...

So far I downloaded the Authorized Version of "America: Freedom to Fascism", A documentary called "The Secret History of Hackers" and another called "The Plot to Overthrow FDR". I'm in the middle of downloading "Unprecedented, the 2000 Election".

9. It's a Yahoo group:

http://groups.yahoo.com/group/DUPanicRoom/

You have to do the usual Yahoo stuff to be in.

16. I don't think it was that.

I saw it and copied it on the Yahoo thing.

I think it's more the strange loss of being that, even if you know what's going down, makes one disoriented.

It still is an odd feeling I have when DU goes away when I'm happily typing away.

Is this a good thing? Probably not.

I clicked on Elad's message and, wham! That's when I scooted over to the asyl...err...Panic Room. :)

18. You are so right.

Edited on Sat Feb-03-07 01:16 AM by LibInTexas

I copied the message from Elad, and the next second, literally, DU went down.

I went to Yahoo and posted.

I'm usually not in that kind of position.

I really hate Yahoo in general, but it's a place to regroup when things here go wrong. That's why I have it bookmarked.

It was very comforting to have the company of my fellow addicts in the Panic Room.
