Has anyone else noticed that gas prices have gone up about 40 cents a gallon in the past month?

    There is more competition for the Dagny role than for most, perhaps any, roles in Atlantis. I have numerous times admitted that I have what I call the "Dagny savior complex". For many of us, it is the last vestige that must go before we come to Atlantis willingly.

    I think we have more than a few Dagnys here; at least I see her when I read the comments

    Wanderer got frustrated with some in the gulch who weren 't quite up to speed in his opinion. I remember him well. Sorry just seeing this thread now. I could have saved you that time.

    Yes, we are. I do a fair amount of cosmetic dentistry ( less since the economic meltdown), but you are right. I consider esthetics in each procedure I do. Thanks

    Hmmm. I certainly don't run a railroad, but I do run a small business. I am a dentist, and a sole practitioner, and the government and insurance companies are aligned to put me out of business. I am fighting a losing battle, but refuse to give up, because what I do is what I am. Dagny and I are alike in that. I also refuse to compromise on my principles and values. Like Dagny, I decided early on (12) what my life's work would be.
    Most of all, even though I know the way I work is a thing of the past, I can not give up because I know it is the right way.

    "Ellis Wyatt" was code-named Wanderer. It took me over an hour to find that info. He has been gone for 9 months.

    But O could be working behind the scenes with the Saudi's to keep the prices low to hit them both. Definitely a two-fer.

    I looked for 10 minutes, and I can't find his name. I remember that when I was trying to find people for various roles in Atlantis that this guy was a natural for Ellis Wyatt. He told me might leave. I PM'd him about that. Then he ... went Galt on us.

    He didn't go by Ellis Wyatt. I'll have to do some searching. It was not long after I joined, probably a year ago.

    Getting creative with my "persona" never occurred to me. (and the question was for $5Au, no you. And now I wonder why fivedollargold didn't just make his gulch name $5Au to begin with.. but maybe the $ isn't allowed.)
