Tad Williams' Message Board

Hello, babies. Welcome to Earth. It's hot in the summer and cold in the winter. It's round and wet and crowded. At the outside, babies, you've got about a hundred years here. There's only one rule that I know of, babies -- 'God damn it, you've got to be kind.'
-    Kurt Vonnegut, 1922-2007

Welcome to the message board for tadwilliams.com. All comments are welcome, whether kudos or brickbats. However, please bear in mind that Tad would like this to be a friendly, civil message board, at least in the relations between users. We reserve the right to remove postings, or even ban postings, from anyone who crosses the boundary of reasonable taste. Basically, you can argue vigorously with someone, but watch your language, okay? We have a lot of young readers as well as grown-ups, so please show them some respect.

But the main requirement here is: have fun.

Re: Sahi's Greenhouse

Hah, you'll just have to join us next year! (And the reason I wanted to steal other people's movies was that for some dances you need a lot of people and that it is less work.)

Re: Sahi's Greenhouse

I've watched a new dance (for me anyway): the Tarantella. Gotta do some research to find out how it works exactly.

Re: Sahi's Greenhouse

It's not easy to find good clips of the dances. We'll probably have to make some ourselves. *wonders what her phone can do*

I've just found out that Anticipation (Worldcon 2009 in Montreal) and Folkwoods are at the same time. Now I'll have to choose. :(

I'll be absent this week, as my father just passed away.

Re: Sahi's Greenhouse

I'm so incredibly sorry to hear that, Sahi. I'm assuming this was completely unexpected?
You're in our thoughts.

Re: Sahi's Greenhouse

Yes it was, Aan. On Thursday he wasn't feeling well and went to the doctor (a miracle in itself), who sent him to the hospital for a film of his heart. They sent him home again and during the night his heart stopped. On Friday we heard that there was nothing to be seen on the film they made.

Re: Sahi's Greenhouse

So sorry to hear that, Sahi. I can't even imagine what it must be like.

Re: Sahi's Greenhouse

Thanks everyone. Be glad that you can't imagine. I've got an overly active imagination and even I know I can only barely imagine what my mother is going through right now.
