Process of elimination.
Stop guessing guys! It was just meant as catharsis...
I don't pee messages into the snow often , but when I do , it's in Cyrillic with Fake Viagra.  Stay frosty my friends.

You're the one who dropped me in a paralyzing gelatin mold. :P
It's neither of you. You're both pretty responsive. I guess I'm just frustrated by the slow pace of PbP in general more than anything, and my lack of time to play any other form of games...

Right there with you, I personally try to post at least once a day(if needed) with hopefully every other day being the latest.

My only complaint with PBPs is the slowness.
I hear it's amazing when the famous purple stuffed worm in flap-jaw space with the tuning fork does a raw blink on Hara-Kiri rock! I need scissors! 61!

Organic foods use significantly more energy to produce and distribute because larger areas of land further away from cities are needed for a smaller amount of food to be grown.  Also, you are around 3 times more likely to get food poisoning and E Coli from organic foods since they use manure as a fertilizer.  It is estimated by the guy who won a Nobel peace prize for his new strain of wheat that with wholly organic food production and no genetically modified foods we could feed around 4 billion of the earth.  We have 7.3 billion.  Do the math.  That guy is credited with saving a billion lives, by the way.
You should look at the Haber-Bosch process. That way of creating ammonia is feeding around half the world's population, if not more. I especially like looking at population graphs showing how stuff just exploded after it was invented
