[awaits Zildian indignation manifestations]


With the serenity conferred upon me at my elevation, I have realised, as a southpaw living at the top of the world, up here in the Southern Hemisphere, that getting indignant at bottom-dwelling Northerners for their quaint delusions about their spatial reality is akin to getting indignant at USn's for spelling funny. In both cases, they just can't help it, so the elevated (geographically and metaphysically) among us must just smile condescendingly, and not risk inflicting permanent harm by insisting that the deluded abandon their delusions.

Bobyb, in describing the Elevation to PoohBahsity Ceremony mentions: The new EPB then reads aloud a special posting composed for the occasion, which should be not less than 50,000 words. (emphasis mine)

Or, to use the portmanteau word, compost.

Faldage wrote The train was shown as traveling from the right side to the left side of the picture.

Presuming you mean right-to-left as I look at the picture :
East.

We were wrong in believing you have an eidetic memory?

Do those with an eidetic memory, not see the employment of books and the written word as futile?
