[Buddha-l] joy

[Gary Gach]

since joanna mentioned it, i might as well reveal the open secret that
websites which seem to be in bardo might often be retrievable still (proving
some point about alaya or something doctrinal, i 'spoze)

we can thank brewster kahle (inventor of w.a.i.s., wide area information
server) whose wayback machine  <http://archive.org>enables this.   (i can
explain how it works, but some might prefer to consider it magic ... and who
am i to spoil the fun ... )

(visitors to my home page can still access that preliminary list of japanese
aesthetic categories, in my haiku garden, but having taught them since a
couple times, following more rigorous research at the asian art museum
library, i blush to remember that preliminary draft; email me if you still
need the specific url)

think of all those seemingly defunct pages that you can now retrieve  ...

"sometimes the joy precedes the smile,
but sometimes the smile precedes the joy"
