A better translation than those found on some sites:

I doubt, therefore I reason, I reason therfore I exist.

Conclusion

I exist, therefore when in doubt, I reason for ? Wink

I think, therefore I am. I think?

Of course you are my bright little star!
Face piles of trials with smiles.
It riles them to believe that you percieve the web they weave.
Keep on thinking free!

Ah Jonah, sometimes I remember *Nights in white Satin* ...

But that's how I'd swear I hear it Wink


Nights in white Cetin
Never Rich in' the end


................................

Some try to tell me
Thoughts they cannot defend;
Just what you want to be
You will be in the end

Beauty I'd always missed
With these eyes before;
Just what the truth is
I can't say any more

.................................

Nights in white Cetin
Never Rich in' the end



(compiled from "Nights In White Satin" - The Moody Blues)

So, I read yours (BTW nice excerpt) and I'd croon. You read mine's and croon. If there's no crash, then with no doubt: We croon, therefore we exist Wink

perhaps we need the Vinci Code(c)
Mar 5, 2005 3:50AM PST

sit and stare at a silver moon
and decipher bytes with the aid of a rune
observe a rainy silver mist that
drenches the croons who strive to exist
watch a loon croon the moon
and see a dune cover too soon
the day in june when you heard pat boone
croon a toon,,,,,

sorry bout that, it's been a looooooonnnnggggg day

Happy

Sometimes when upgrades or fix deployment are
Mar 7, 2005 12:45AM PST

done, the engineers will take down the forum servers to deploy the changes. In those events the forums will sometimes be down for a few minutes. If the forums don't come back up within a reasonable amount of time --10 minutes or more, then the forums most likely crashed.

We apologize for the inconvenience during these occurences.
