I didn't take pics but the feeling of being in a group of people with no visible beginning or end was so thrilling. The opposite of online anomie, and a living counterpoint to the wary, isolated, compartmentalized world the shitheads want to make. It's simple and obvious I guess but it means a lot.

I guess it's anachronistic, but I kinda want to believe that ReBeKaH RoWe was intending sarcasm when she signed this 18th century sampler.
