18:00:11 | localroger | I am going further, with a van stocked with what I could salvage in an afternoon. |
18:00:20 | localroger | Tomorrow morning. |
18:00:27 | localroger | If a miracle doesn't happen. |
18:00:56 | hkhenson | I am rooting for Ivan to go east to clearwater |
18:01:07 | Lucifer | why there? |
18:01:20 | hkhenson | scientology |
18:01:25 | localroger | I know Henson, I was thinking the same thing. But not too likely now. |

18:02:23 | Lucifer | welcome everyone to tonight's chat |
18:02:33 | Lucifer | the topic this evening is the "Circle of Empathy" |
18:02:55 | Lucifer | the question is how far to we extend our circle? |
18:03:04 | Lucifer | too little and we are cruel |
18:03:09 | Lucifer | too far and we are stupid |
18:03:22 | Lucifer | how do we decide and how do we defined our choice? |
18:03:40 | WW | WW (~wlwatts@[death to spam].ip68-13-228-248.ok.ok.cox.net) has joined #virus |
18:03:40 | ChanServ | Mode change [+o WW] on #virus by ChanServ |
18:03:40 | Lucifer | Does anyone have objections to the concept? |
18:03:46 | Lucifer | just in time WW |
18:03:50 | WW | Walter Watts of the Royal Society of Competitive Ululating present.... |
18:03:51 | rhino | hey ww |
18:03:55 | ChrisRovner | Uh, why is it stupid to extend it too far? |
18:03:59 | localroger | It's beautifully simple |
18:04:05 | WW | hey Lucifer, rhino |
18:04:20 | Lucifer | Because then you waste resources on things that don't matter, ChrisRovner |
18:04:31 | Lucifer | necessarily keeping resources from ones who deserve it |
18:05:04 | rhino | i think the circle fades where we start having difficulties to identify them with ourselves |
18:05:04 | localroger | For example how I didn't offer to let my neighbor ride and evacuate with me earlier this afternoon. |
18:05:49 | Lucifer | Would you agree it is stupid to devote your life to the Save the Mosquitos campaign? |
18:05:49 | ChrisRovner | Right, I see |
