Like a half forgotten nightmare -- reminds me how being a 'premie' and 'keeping in touch' engendered an intense compulsion to repeatedly 'pass the test' of being able to put absolutely everything else in your life aside and make an effort so as to attend these 'events'. Half of the feeling of being a premie at an event came from a sense of simple relief that you had made it - once again. And with all that burden of sunken costs - over a lifetime in some cases - ever greater urgency to suck ever more determinedly and uncritically on whatever nonsense gets served up -- be it PEPS, PEPEDUS or whatever.
Lot of stuff there named after 'jacaranda trees'. Bit of a shame really - they are lovely when they bloom in the Spring - but being autumn the 'delegates' won't even get to see em.
