It's time to send these for another go round my part of the blog-o-verse. How (many) geeks communicate: Tact filters and fanspeak.

Edit: [livejournal.com profile] ozarque's journal also came up in the discussion last night. Check it out in general (along with her books). One relevant entry: http://ozarque.livejournal.com/176349.html (the discussion far more than the original post).

And I had totally forgotten Jeff (the "Tact filter" author) was now on my f-list. *waves* Hi, Jeff! He points me to another discussion of the Tact filters essay: http://dawnd.livejournal.com/213255.html?thread=1482503

There was a rather extensive discussion of the tact filters essay back in February in [livejournal.com profile] dawnd's livejournal.

The back of my mind tells me that your wife is Nancy, and that we were on the same pregnancy list six years ago. At any rate, I read the tact thing and said "wait, I think I know that guy's wife!"

The world, it is small.

Indeed it is. Nancy says "Hi."

Thank You! I have been to trying to find that "fanspeak" text. I read it some time ago and couldn't remember the source. Thank you!
