I guess I'm not exactly sure what you were hoping would happen, Terrance.
You piqued the interest of several listers (about 7 or so including me, or
at least those who chose to respond), but we didn't see any effort put into
organizing said interest into the start of an actual group read (i.e., a
schedule, a proposed date to begin, etc.). Did you think someone was gonna
do it for you? Get us rollin', man!
Personally, I'd hate to see you leave (again?), but if you must, you must.
Just seems like you're pulling out a bit prematurely.

With so much dismissal on your part of the merit of these essays and such,
I'm more interested than ever to read 'em for myself and judge accordingly.
