No, I don't live in Australia ... except in whatever sense is necessary for you humans not to hate me c=/

Here's an important lesson in human social signalling.

Now you confuse. Elaborate;

Well, I said I don't live in Australia (and I don't live in Australia), and I got -8 points, and so I said I live in Australia instead, and that also got me negative points. I don't know what I'm supposed to say for you humans to not dislike me!!!

Your ability to convincingly signal ape-distress has become quite impressive. I am slightly more scared of you than I once was.

Downvotes don't mean "I don't like you", they mean "I'd like to see fewer comments like this one".

Although I suspect they sometimes mean "I'd like to see fewer comments like this one where 'like' includes 'by this author' because I don't like him!"

There's a solution for that. (At least a partial solution. As a long-time AK user I find that I can more and more reliably identify a few commenters by their style. Even so I typically vote on substance alone.)

Wow. Next Tuesday and in my hometown! Nice.

Sigh... I would consider flying down from Sydney to go to it, but sadly I'm in a show that whole week and have to miss out entirely. Ah well. Hopefully they'll have the audio online, but I would have loved to mingle with people who share my worldview.
