As one of the list moderators and one of the believers in this little experiment we call GO::DH, let me publicly encourage you to be more respectful of our peers in our international network. We are already fighting against enormous odds. The network in general is supportive of academic discourse on tough issues like race, gender and colonialism because those continue to be important questions to most of us. It doesn't help to dismiss the debates with a condescending offer to sort out technical issues. I know you were trying to be funny. They're not all hits. I should know, I put my foot in my mouth all the time.

As much as we can keep humor alive while remaining civil and professional, I encourage all members of the list to do so.

Here's one: a skeleton walks into a bar and shouts to the bartender "give me a beer and a mop!"

Hi Adeline,

I am not sure how to engage with this. They are wonderful and noble ideas, and sure I may agree with them in some other context, but 'post-colonial DH', what could this possible mean?

There is an old joke, there are 2 types of people in the world, those that draw conclusions from incomplete data!

Today is a very sunny day here in Melbourne. I am going to walk down the road and get a cheese cake from the little Greek cafe that always go to. If you or Adeline are ever in Melbourne, perhaps you could join me and discuss your problems with XML ,

Kind regards,

Craig

Dear list members,

DHPoco (Postcolonial Digital Humanities) published an Open Thread yesterday on whether DH has historically provided refuge from race/class/gender/sexuality/disability. We've had a terrific, if US-centric, discussion so far, and hope list members will add their thoughts.

Here is the link: http://dhpoco.org/2013/05/10/open-thread-the-digital-humanities-as-a-historical-refuge-from-raceclassgendersexualitydisability/

Best,

Adeline
