A question I have about Quest for Folly

Is making illuminated books a skill that is still practised?

Why I admire Quest for Folly

The way she’s made me think about my biophilia goal, for her own goals, and things she has recorded as doing (read the DaVinci Codenot worth it:), her avatars, and her tags.

A question I have about mOz

What can I do to make you more talkative? You have such wonderful goals, you want to go to fantastic places, and you want to meet brillant people…but you are so quiet! You never seem to post entries. It is almost like you are teasing us.

Are you shy? Coy? Maybe there a magic word? Reveal your mysteries to us, I beg you.

Why I want to meet Ilya

He seems so very gentle-hearted and driven to make a difference. He is continually educating me about biophilia and Scots words (more of these, please). I love that he seems to enjoy himself so effortlessly—living a simple life, reading, traveling. He is the first person on 43T that I’ve “formally” wanted to meet.

I wonder how much of an accent he has…
