This site is way way cool. Thanks to Elad for linking to it.

elad said...: i love that site. that post at the top of the page is fascinating. do you think that's invisible ink?

i introduced this site to this music messageboard i'm on and a lot of the people - mostly british and some french people - said it was very cheesy and didn't identify with any of it, which made me wonder if americans are more repressed emotionally than people in foreign countries. the americans were all really touched by it.; 12:57 PM
Christopher Barzak said...: Don't know if it's invisible ink or not, and don't know why some foreign people who you've let on to the site have those reactions, because there are postcards on the site from those very countries. So I imagine it's just those individuals have a sort of jaded idea about emotional symbolism and also probably about public group oriented emoting. In any case, I think it's interesting in the very least.; 2:01 PM
