[-empyre-] January 2009 on -empyre- "New Year's Resolutions for Digital Futures"

[Christina McPhee]

dear Tim, Renate, and all on -empyre-,

Thank you to everyone who read, mused, pondered, and  contributed to  
exploring 'pharmakon' -  including new contributors Neal Robinson,  
Eliza Fernbach, and Kristen Alvanson.   A personal thanks to all of  
you for sharing ideas and affection for this strange and enjoyable  
mystery.
Now on to more pragmatic dreams and hopes on the possiblities of new  
digital resolutions -- maybe beyond high-def.

Christina
