I assume that the numbers prior to 2008 would change if I still had my email from my old accounts but I suspect not by too much. You can see the ramp up to my failed business in 2008, then the collapse as I returned to a country where I had to rebuild my network–which led into my student years, and then my return to the fray in late 2014. At the beginning of 2017 I started aggressively reducing the email subscriptions but the overall trend is still–insanely–going the wrong way. 18,000 emails a year last year is about 74 emails per hour of consciousness–all year.
A lot of people lose the spirit of childhood. Every child has a lot of imagination and you lose it little by little. I don't know why, but I kept it.
