    What do you talk about?

    We discuss behavioral methods. Something i want fixed :: Why I want it fixed :: Possible method to fix it. I often meander about things, as it can take several minutes to get comfortable enough to discuss something. We do not discuss trauma. Trauma was thirty years ago and is irrelevant.

    Rolling Update Changes - End 01 May 2017

    I don't like change, but I do like improved functionality and forward-thinking design. Fast is good. perhaps paying members could set a colored layout for themselves, or choose from several pre-set layouts. Consistent brand is important, but customization can be a big draw.
