Thanks for the welcome..."world famous"? I must have missed that memo.dlbpharmd wrote:At last, the world famous Michael from Santa Fe! Welcome!Zenlunatic wrote:Hello.

Have you visited the thread here on the Watch devoted to discussing questions and answers from the Gradual Interview? Since the Watch has members world-wide, and many of your questions are featured in that thread, I think "world famous" is a valid description.Zenlunatic wrote:Thanks for the welcome..."world famous"?

Yes, I have visited that thread, of course, I love the GI. I've been lucky that SRD has not gotten tired of me and continues to answer my questions (I almost always submit my quota each month). He may not answer one of the ones I submitted this month:Menolly wrote:Have you visited the thread here on the Watch devoted to discussing questions and answers from the Gradual Interview?

I've thought about it, but it's just never worked out. Besides, I'm world famous, the crowds and security would spoil it for everyone else.danlo wrote:ZL!!! Why have you never called, or come down the road for Elohimfest!?
yes, you are! (your real first name wouldn't be Val, would it?? 
)Ah, you got me...when I wasn't pretending I was Jim Morrison I lurked on Kevin's Watch and submitted questions to the GI. Busted...danlo wrote:
I thought about it but decided against it for a few reasons, but it came down to I just didn't want to use it in both the GI and on the Watch. Hopefully, it's not too confusing.drew wrote:I think you should just change your username to Michael from Santa Fe...it would clear a lot of things up.
Andrew (drew): HI Mr Donaldson. An easy question for you: How many copies (if any!!) of your published books do you own? Do you have a copy of each different cover for every book? Do you have any of the translated copies of your works?
My publishers are supposed to send me multiple copies of every book in every new edition (or repackaging) in every language. My US and UK publishers are faithful about this (perhaps because I deal with them directly): foreign language publishers are sporadic at best. So I have a random assortment of my books in languages other than English
Nope, today is my first day as an official registered member, and already with 11 posts...making up for lost time...or just to f-in cold and windy today to do anything but play on the computer.drew wrote:I was just kidding.
I had assumed though, that you were already a member of KW.
I usually use both my real name, and username on the GI

Uh no, this morning it was 10 (and that's not Celcius), right now it's 30, but the wind is blowing at 30mph, so the wind chill is - whatever, something...I don't know how they figure that out - but it feels less than 30.drew wrote:Yeah I'll bet it pretty cold there in Santa Fe.
What is it seventy?
Brrrrrrrrrr
Well, Santa Fe is at an altitude of about 7000ft, so yeah, it gets cold.drew wrote:Wow...I honestly didn't think it went below freezing there.
Its minus ten where I'm at (but that IS celcius)
