MBTI step II type : Expressive INTP
There's an annual contest at Bond University, Australia, calling for the most appropriate definition of a contemporary term:
The winning student wrote:
"Political correctness is a doctrine, fostered by a delusional, illogical minority, and promoted by mainstream media, which holds forth the proposition that it is entirely possible to pick up a piece of shit by the clean end."
When I signed up I received one but it went to my spam folder.

I set up a notification so that I am notified whenever there are registrations pending.
Could someone save the Why the 4T started in 2008 and NOT in 2001 thread and repost it to the Generational Theory forum? It's one of my favorite threads and I'd like to contribute more to it.
We have it in our power to begin the world over again.

Thanks for providing this service. Good work!
There's a few of my threads I'd like preserved if possible. This is one:
http://www.fourthturning.com/forum/s...ess-Revolution
This is a long one that I started even before the current (and soon to be gone) T4T forum website began:
http://www.fourthturning.com/forum/s...e-and-turnings
I am setting up the global warming thread on my own site, but I may not finish before May 16. So that's another one:
http://www.fourthturning.com/forum/s...Global-Warming
I didn't start it, but I used it as a place to share and store important articles on the subject.

OK, I've collected all three of those threads, as well as the one
listed by millst98.
These threads will all appear in a TFT archive that I'm creating, and
hope to post a first version soon.
I keep finding old threads that I'd forgotten about but that I want to
preserve for personal reasons, and of course those will be in the
archive.
I strongly urge everyone who's been in this forum for a while to take
an hour or two and go back and find any threads you care about, and
list them so that I can grab them and put them into the archive. The
TFT forum is going to be killed next weekend, so there's not much time
left.
***** The Fourth Turning Forum Archive *****
http://generationaldynamics.com/tftarchive
The first version of the Fourth Turning Forum archive is now online.
http://generationaldynamics.com/tftarchive
With the Fourth Turning Forum being killed on May 16, 2016, this
archive of some of the threads is presented as a public service to the
hundreds of people who have been members for many years.
This is a first version. I hope to get some of the linking and
formatting working better. If there's something you'd like to see,
let me know and I might be able to accomodate you.
The software to produce this archive has been written and can be rerun
at any time. That means that I can still add new threads. I can also
rerun it to capture any posts that are added to these threads before
May 16.
If this archive is missing any threads that you want, then let me know
as quickly as possible, before they're killed and disappear forever.
I know that I'm going to be going back through notes all week to see
if there are any more threads I want. I urge everyone to do the same.

Thanks, John!
To recommend thrift to the poor is both grotesque and insulting. It is like advising a man who is starving to eat less.

I've done a run of the software, including all of these threads. So
these are all available now.
I didn't include your second posting of threads. I'll try to
get to that later today.
One additional thing I have to do is re-download all the thread data
from the threads I've already captured, in order to include posts that
have been added since I downloaded thos threads the first time. I'll
get to that later this week.
