In case you are wondering why there is so little spam on LifeTwo, the answer lies in our daily monitoring of all comments and posts. Of course we have software that filters out 90% of spam placed on the site but that means that 2-5 spam posts still slip through each day and thus have to be taken out manually. This is time that I used to be able to use to write my own posts. »more»

Like many (all?) people in midlife, I have found myself with less and less opportunity to read books. I regularly read two newspapers and several magazines but over the past decade my book reading has gone to 2-3 a month to 2-3 a year. Sad.
