2. I have posted a few on the other site...
but this site, for some reason, feels more like DU and is more comfortable. Just my opinion.

3. I come back for a happy dose of nostalgia now & then
and in hopes of seeing some of our very missed DUers that seem not to have made the move.

26. Here. Why do you ask?
People read here who will not post, even on a thread like this.

If you want to know how many aer checking in, take a look in the "Views" column.

Some threads get a few hundred views. Some of those views will be duplicates, but most will not be.

32. Glad the lights are back on. I come here pretty much everyday
in the evening to see how you all are doing. Good to see you all and you have my support, hope the temporary black out was just temporary.

It's nice of the owners to allow this site to continue, at least they should get some credit.

All of you are missed on DU3 and I especially miss your commentary on DU3. I won't single out anyone, as all of you contributed to DU2 in your own special way and I loved reading your OPs and comments.

Stay well and best wishes.

41. Did a check out, today.
of our "sister site." Even with the re-vamp of DU Front Page (which makes it look closer to the old DU Front Page) the posts are lacking...few replies...lots of views (who know who they are that "view") and the site seems to still attack those who aren't total Obama supporters ...lock step. Folks on the Left who managed to still post there are being attacked constantly. I don't know how they take the abuse.

The DU-3...is having some problems. But, then again...we aren't getting posters coming over here to REPLY to our posts...so there's some "Disturbance in the Force" out there in the Dem Side...imho... but, what do I know. Just saying. And, I was actually fearful saying this figuring it could be a bad reflection for DU-2 ...since we are on borrowed time and not being "lock step" does put one on a "watch list." Already...we tippy toe around issues ..waiting for the AXE to FALL on our heads.

Whatever...it's all getting to be silliness, anyway...sigh....

48. I pop in.
To see whats doing and whose doing it. :) The help and meta forum is the most hoppin place on DU3 and frankly I find that talking about the machinations of the site and what this or that jury got wrong is just tedious. I still miss this place and god almighty I never thought I'd say it but I miss the moderator system. I still think that with some fundemental changes that is the way to go.

51. Believe in magic....

Someone who had been banned on DU3 mentioned at another site that they could post here so I thought I'd give it a try.

Let's see how long it takes for someone to alert on my red ass.

In truth, I don't have that much cred.

I challenged the standard view of the Soviet Union and didn't even get a pizza for my effort. I look in time to time but the place has become the echo-chamber of their dreams. Not much point in posting there anymore anyway.

63. How to get back here.
You've had the power to return home along.




Inasmuch as I saved DU to my Favorites (aka bookmarked it) in 2008, all I ever have to do to get here is click.



(Slow your roll. One click is enough.)

If I don't have access to my Favorites, I just google in DU3 for something I know was posted on DU2 while saying, "There's no place like home." Next thing you know, I'm at DU 2.





As for how not to get back here. Dunno. Never tried to stay away.
