(...) the 24th is our big day, lesser activity today. That's because that's when the holidays fall on the calendar (similar to Washington's birthday being on a monday, but not really)... on the 21st I was still on the road. It's also because we have (...) (26 years ago, 25-Dec-00, to lugnet.off-topic.debate, lugnet.admin.general)

(...) I agree, but on the other hand, calling today the solstice is incorrect. Why not celibrate the solstice on the 21st? Out of curiosity, Larry, do you celibrate the WS today, or on 21 December? Why not Newtonmass? Chris (26 years ago, 25-Dec-00, to lugnet.off-topic.debate, lugnet.admin.general)

(...) Well, I'm writing this on December 25th in a hotel room before we go spend the day with family and I don't take what Larry said as a snipe on Christianity. The celebration of the Winter Solstice predates the celebration of Christmas by a good (...) (26 years ago, 25-Dec-00, to lugnet.off-topic.debate, lugnet.admin.general)

(...) I started the thred in both .debate and .admin.general because I felt there was an issue with how Lugnet is run, and the effect .debate has on the whole of Lugnet. Perhaps it wasn't the right thing to do, it certainly did grow beyond what is (...) (26 years ago, 24-Dec-00, to lugnet.admin.general)

Hi, Why are you guys debating the uselessness of .debate in the admin.general group? I would think you would do this in .debate. Anyway I thought it was kinda funny. Cheers! Gary (26 years ago, 24-Dec-00, to lugnet.admin.general)

Perhaps we've convinced Larry and Scott A to back off a bit, and I think the current dicsussion is actually bringing up some interesting points, and doesn't seem as much to be (...)

(...) The way it's written one could almost read it as he hopes that you two have a lot of fights with each other, rather a mean thing to wish so close to Winter Solstice festival, don't you think? :-) So I'm doubting *that* is what he meant.
