I checked out your link. Pretty interesting. Tempting to recycle some of juicier apt quotes from the last page (the polite juicy ones, that is), but I'll skip it, and try to figure out what should happen next (perhaps something other than nothing).

You're welcome. Ironic indeed. If I knew you'd originated this thing, I must have forgotten ages ago. Thanks. Well done.
However... seems the distinction between fact and opinion got misplaced here. Ill, perhaps, or cocooning, or mutating, and certainly degenerating of late—but dead? Seems at least slightly hasty to make that pronouncement. That which can degenerate can regenerate, as long as it isn't stone cold dead in every cell.
Of course your own participation may be dead, if you want it to be, but that's different—in your case, like letting your offspring fend for themselves when the time comes to let go. If you've really had enough of them you can curse them and say "You're dead to me" or "For all care, you might as well die" but you don't generally toss them in a pit and shovel dirt over them to make sure, just because you've had enough and you're not impressed by how they're turning out.
Anyway, you went out in style with the god-smacked sermonette.
