Striving and craving,

For pleasure or prosperity,

These are your enemies,

Springing up to destroy you

From the presumptions of virtue.

Let them all go.

Hold on to nothing.

--Ashtavakra Gita 10:1

Hold on to nothing.

Having been infected by Bugbear, we have lost all saved e-mail messages from the past 3 years, our entire address book, and the mailing lists for our respective bands. I don't mean to be glib, because I'm sure the inconvenience of this will crop up eventually, but I feel almost glad to be rid of all that.
