Damn, Ashgan. Since you are somewhat passive presence to begin with I quite did not suspect something might have happened to you (not yet, anyway ... though I'd probably have tried to track you down once I realized you've been a bit *too* quiet for a bit *too* long). I hope whatever it was is gone for good now... ...Just some time ago, I was actually wondering whether I should gather phone numbers and contacts from/for at least a few people I know over the net just to have some alternative means of reaching them, and if that doesn't work, either, to be able to reach someone who knows them in real life just so I'd have some means of getting to know what happened or is going on should they suddenly disappear off the face of the net entirely and no longer respond to even e-mails. I'd hopefully never need such contacts, and I am not going to use them unless I [i]have[/i] to, but at least those would be there. - Note that as soon as someone informs me that they do not wish any further contact, I [i]will[/i] leave them alone for good... At least letting people know that you're breaking contact rather than just disappearing without any sort of closure and leaving people wondering whatever they did wrong or what happened is also something I consider minimal human courtesy. (As for why I was having such thoughts ... a person over the net's online friend was taken to hospital in a serious condition recently, and I've been following the progress of things since... And relatedly I realized that there are people I care about to significant extent who could just [i]disappear[/i] at one point if anything happened to them, but for me making a dedicated and slightly dubiously legal effort to track them down.) So yeah. As for me, I'm still sort-of intending to finish our collab-post-thing with the aid of others, just been a bit preoccupied and also somewhat foggy and demotivated. (May be weather, may be something else. Not ill, though, nor physically tired - just thinking doesn't work too well. Feels like Spain.)
