I went to the BayFF meeting at the San Francisco Public Library. There was a panel including David Burt, who founded Filtering Facts, and who now works at N2H2.
The meeting was interesting. I'm not going to summarize it here, because I've already written a long summary for peacefire-technical.
I made an attempt to represent Peacefire there, by mentioning our work, by asking a Peacefire-interest question, and by writing a report for Peacefire afterward.
This was a really good weekend. Wolfgang was here, we went to Kate's party, and other nice things happened.
I went to eat with Zack in the evening.
"[...] We do not exist in the majority of these times; in some you exist, and not I; in others I, and not you; in others, both of us. In the present one, which a favorable fate has granted me, you have arrived at my house; in another, while crossing the garden, you found me dead; in still another, I utter these same words, but I am a mistake, a ghost."
"In every one," I pronounced, not without a tremble to my voice, "I am grateful to you and revere you for your re-creation of the garden of Ts'ui Pên."
"Not in all," he murmured with a smile. "Time forks perpetually toward innumerable futures. In one of them I am your enemy."
(Jorge Luis Borges, "The Garden of Forking Paths", trans. Donald A. Yates)
