Just out of casual interest, how many are still here in comparison to say the 
Millenium? 
I suspect not many.  I know BookFace has many adherents and I was on it for a 
while until 
I seemingly upset its algorithms by saying something they/it didn?t like and 
BookFace has 
informed me more than once when I try to rejoin that I?m banned for life. Okay 
Zuckerberg, 
I?m not in sympathy with your political inclinations anyway and I certainly got 
sick of 
receiving stuff your algorithms were convinced I?d like, when the reality was 
they bored 
me witless. I?ve been a reluctant subscriber to The Triumph Experience for a 
couple of 
years which also doesn?t grab me. It?s too Standard-Triumph model specific, 
people get 
upset when they accidentally post to the wrong forum and there has been some 
disquieting 
and very discourteous responses and no one seems to be particularly helpful. 
Mark?s monthly 
reminders tell me I?m logged to 6 Pack but I never get six pack stuff coming my 
way and 
even with the correct password, I can?t access it.
The reality (for me) is that tech is going too fast for me to keep up with it 
and I refuse 
to spend any day of my surely now limited life transfixed by my smartphone 
screen that 99% 
of the rest of the world seems happy to do. I?m not enamoured by either my 
former iPhone 
or current Samsung as they?re both full of trash programs that hold zero 
interest and I 
can?t be bothered or motivated to learn how they work.
Perhaps it?s better for me to once more return to the days of carbon paper, 
card index 
boxes and an abacus. At least I know how they work!
