No, dp is a regular contributor here in Speakeasy, Happy

He's good.

As to Ecclesiastes 9:5-10, I am not religious minded myself but I read it and I reckon it has a simple message which says this;

"You are a long time dead. Enjoy life while you can".

Ecclesiastes is an interesting book

Rejected as Canon and then later accepted. Yet, it's not so much a book of instruction as one showing the selfishness and despair of the wealthiest when he realizes he's dying and can't take his life's work chasing fun and riches with him. Consequently, some of his musings are erroneous and out of line with the true scriptures.
