2005-01-09, Daniel P. Beckmann. Official Statement from the Moderator on the instigations of Dr. Yarrum:

Tomarken.com will celebrate its three-year anniversary at the end of this month. Throughout all of that time there has been one person who has always wondered what was going on with tomarken, was it going to rise again? Did he see a sputter of activity? You could always trust him to interact with every part of this site-his responses were so many I haven’t even put up half of them yet. I don’t exactly know if it was a generational thing or what happens to people when they get old, but Dr. Yarrum kept track of things, and often wondered why others didn’t do the same.

2004-03-22, Criticism. Friendster:As a guide to the “Why” Generation:

The initial gestapo-style word-o-mouth advertising that one had to endure on Friendster(R) before any honest-minded folk had the oppurtunity to make up their own minds on what this newly-fangled use of computer techonology added or subtracted from their present functionality serves as a great example of what its like being a lifetime resident of the “perpetual indentity-searching-Post-MTV(R) generation”-submitted by Daniel P.
