Hello everyone, been lurking since the trainwreck, too shy to post, so go easy.  Love listening to Dave. Was a long time Art Bell listner. Cray Cray not so much. Please let the smite button be gone. ;)

I am glad the site finally worked for you.
Pretend smite says smile and it makes things easier.

I love these stories.  The words "Coast to Coast AM" were first spoken to me sometime in the mid-90's by my grandmother, retired and living by herself in Mesa, Arizona, in a situation that resembled Art's own "compound" as we now know it -- a slapped-together prefab hunkered in the desert.  She became a night owl and I remember noting on each return trip how the titles on her bookshelves were gradually changing from supermarket novels to UFO encyclopedias and grimoires.  There really was a palpable sense in those days that "something" significant loomed just around the corner . . . movies and tv shows hinted at it; Art tried to coax it from the airwaves. 

That feeling has been dead a long time for me.  I think, now, it may have been the collective subconscious' rejection of a reality too hideous to acknowledge (then) at the level of consciousness: the final exhaustion of post-WWII potential, which at one time had seemed without limit.

Loved your entire post Space Girl and yes we all have those long time memories of Art Bell making us think out of our comfort zones.

....ummmmm.....
I used to be able to add positive Karma points to people's posts.... but now it's not available to me.
Is this still an option for newbies?  Or do I have to post enough to earn the right to hit Good Karma or SMITE?
Ancient Aliens say "YES"

There is a serial smiter loose in the forum. Apparently he or she doesn't think anyone deserves a perfect zero for smites. I got one quickly also. Welcome to the club.

I think it is now set for anyone who has at least 5 posts.
You can also only praise/smite a person once every 36 hours

That takes away all of the fun.  I understand that I cannot smite somebody over and over... But can I praise them once every 36 hours AND smite them once during the same 36 hours?  Sometimes I am very conflicted.

I hope you aren’t counting that one.
