The catastrophic Alberta floods this past week got me thinking about this topic. I was so busy with volunteering with the flood clean-up that I didn't even log on to tuscl for about a week. When I finally did log on to tuscl again I enjoyed the relief of losing myself in the fantasy world of tuscl's discussions, reviews, and articles.
I have many other interests besides tuscl outside of my daily work life but none of those interests are as completely divorced from reality as is the tuscl world of SCs, dancers, and PLs like me.
I appreciate tuscl even more now but at the same time I shake my head at the utter frivolity of our hobby.


Good point Farmerart. I have not been participating in this hobby or in TUSCL much lately either because my other life activities and obligations have been pressing me for time. But eventually weariness and the need to escape brings one back to TUSCL. Where else can we find the erudite and and idiotic in the same form with a common interest?
Ironic isn't it that this frivolity is real work for the dancers, although not in the real world.
