...that I had registered. http://www.OzoneAsylum.com/Forum17/HTML/000159.html
But now that I'm here: Hi to everyone! 
A friend of mine showed me Docs site some years ago and I liked it a lot. So I came back every now and then and one day there was the asylum. Now I've been lurking for some months and I can tell you that I really love this place. There were some conflicts lately but I think it is a great community. I would be happy to contribute, but I think there is more for me to learn than to give. I'm not really in the business of web design. I'm more in the content itself. But perhaps I could give you my humble opinion whenever it is not needed...
And VP: I know, I should not ask, but... Would you lend me your mop??? Just ONCE! Just a second. Pleeeaaasee.... And I promise, I will give it back! And I will be very careful!

Welcome Miss Terry. Glad you registered. I'm interested in what you mean by "I'm not really in the business of web design. I'm more in the content itself."
I'm dense. Can you break that down for me?

Ah yes, another lurker emerges from the shadows... W E L C O M E
...and the question of the day would be, "does telling the truth about something create conflict or merely expose its exitence". Sounds like something we can bring up in the philosophy section...

Thank you all for the welcome! *Glup. Swallows the pills* Wow. Should have had them before.
And no, dracusis, I didn't join because of ... oh well, maybe a little bit... well, okay, I did. And if you did loose eleven of your fingers - you're the lucky one! You still have one left to push the reset button, don't you? *Counts her fingers again*
Jeni, what I meant is: In fact I'm a technical writer that went into web business. I'm responsible for the contents of my company's internet and intranet site, which means - simplified - I write the text and build the site structure. The layout comes from our headquater and I have to use it. If I need some graphics, well, I do the easier ones, but I'm happy we do have some designers. Sometimes I try some Javascript. Was that, what you were asking for?
And yes, I probably know this place. Or perhaps it's more the feeling that I know it. As many said before: Being here is different from just lurking.

Hi MissTerry! Welcome, welcome, glad to have you here. I followed the earlier philosophy thread, seems like you made the right decision, met with my "personal philosophy seal of approval?"! (Read the other thread, I describe.) Also glad you made the decision to de-cloak here in the forum, we need all viewpoints here, not just graphics and code! I've been very involved in the business of content myself these last few months, which from a *design* perspective is kid of ironic, I *hate* designing blocks of text, not my forté at all. Still, I like to write, and recognize te whole point of these systems we design is usually to share some form of content, why shouldn't someone who creates it for a living fit right in here? Glad to have you.
Your pal, -doc-

Woah! So many more welcomes! Thanks to all again.
Doc, I read the other thread, and yes, what you write comes very close to what I think. As far as it concerns my stay in the asylum: I will try my best to show you the viewpoints of a text hacker - heh-he *evil grin*.
Heh-he? Ups! Reminds me of my medicines! Damn, too late, missed breakfast and medicine! *Mutters dissatisfied. Wanders aimlessly through the cell.* Hey, what's in that package? *Scrsh. Ripping off paper* HEY! Shh... hey...wow..thank you so much VP! JKM: Everthings fine with that package!
And for Maruman: I think I have lots of different facets in my personality, but I can promise you, I'm far from being mean.

Welcome MissTerry
Glad to have you've here. I see you gotten your jacket and pills, so I'll just show you where the bathroom is.....
*puts finger to lips*
ssshhhhhh.... don't tell Dracusis where it is.
You seem to be right at home and you definitely fit right in. Don't worry about missing breakfast, just ask Shiii for a few more back pills, they're as good as a meal.
:edit: It's not a real post unless you've had to edit it for some dumb mistake. :/edit:

Now that everything is clean and shiny I'm definitly beginning to feel at home. Time to give IT back to VP... *Hands him package, hugs him* Found some strange hieroglyphs at the wall... Perhaps left by former asylumite... Didn't figure out yet what they mean.
