Life, the universe, pies, hot-pink bunnies, world domination, and everything
It’s been more than a year since we started the first “Ask the GAPAs” thread. Since then the number of Administrators on the blog has doubled, and we’re sure your questions have more than kept pace. So fire away. As before, we promise to answer entertainingly, or not at all.
Date: March 29, 2007

Er… about those two Q+A’s in the April issue…. Was that a koinkydink that you got two “funny name” letters or did I miss something?

Answering this question would create a spoiler. Why don’t you re-ask it on the April Muse discussion thread?

Out of 50 posts, say, how many would you moderate, on average?

What is your adress, telephone number, and please include maps to there from Chicago.
Kidding, kidding. Umm… If the moon were made of cheese, would it mold? I have my own theroys about this, but I want to see what you think.

how do you manage to moderate all those posts (including this one) while also doing something for a living? i mean, come on, you’ve got to do something for a living. do they, like, pay you to preside over MB? that would be kinda weird. 
0
0
6- I’ve often wondered that.
0
0
6 – Me too. Our posts get moderated suprisingly quickly, relatively speaking, so I’m thinking each GAPA must spend a good 3 or 4 hours every day moderating posts. And this is not a profitable job. There’s no income in the “buisness” of MuseBlog.

Oh, come on! The GAPAs are magical, everyone knows that!!

if the moon were made of cheese would it mold?
0
0
5 – I think it would not. Mold is formed by contact with the air and stuff, but since space doesn’t have air and stuff, the moon wouldn’t mold.
6 – I’ve thought about that a few times. I’m not sure how they do it. Now that there are four, it must be a little easier, I suppose. I’ve always wanted to be a GAPA once I turn 18. And until that happens, I think we should all send each of the GAPAs a dollar. 
I’ll certainly do it if other people do as well.
What is it in mammals to which many humans are allergic? (is that correct grammar?) I know there are a few different parts, one being the saliva of cats and therefore their fur which they lick, but I”m not sure what the others are.

11- Being a GAPA would be fun, I most certainly agree.
GAPAs, are your paying jobs full-time jobs?
0
0
11- That’s basicly what I say. But I’m interested in what the GAPAs would think/say.

GAPA duty is strictly volunteer. We all have jobs. Some of us have several.
I have no idea of the total time I spend on the blog. I probably don’t want to know. These days I seem to live on the computer, especially when I’m doing graphics, therefore I can check in fairly often, though usually for just a minute or two at the time. It’s quite a nice combination, actually — like having company while I work.
Moderating fits into the schedule without much effort, but it’s not always easy to take time to write. Today has been one of those days, so sorry we haven’t answered earlier.

Water is a clear substance, right? So why does a towel get darker if you spill water on it?

(6, 8, etc.),
Moderating is quicker than you might think. Our GAPA control panels let us see several posts at once, and we can easily zap any spam and approve the rest. I do it at work in five-minute bursts, maybe six times a day. I also have a Web-enabled Treo, which lets me moderate while riding buses and trains to and from the office, waiting to be served in restaurants, etc.
Muse doesn’t pay any of us to work on the Fan Page or MuseBlog. In fact, none of this was the magazine’s idea. We do it for fun.
Paul Baker writes articles for the magazine, and Rosanne and I run the question-and-answer column. Muse pays us for those projects by the job, the way you’d get paid for mowing a lawn. (Come to think of it, we’d probably make more money mowing lawns, but that’s another issue. Besides, Muse is in a skyscraper and doesn’t have a lawn.)
As for what we do in our non-Muse lives: Rosanne is the editor of Stanford Medicine magazine. I’m a news editor at Science. Both are fulltime jobs. Rebecca and Paul do all sorts of odds and ends that I can’t keep straight.
How we know each other: Rosanne and I met in graduate school. Rebecca and I actually went to high school together, though we didn’t know each other very well back then. We met Paul through Muse. Well, none of us has met him in person, but we feel as if we know him very well. That’s the kind of person he is, you know?

I think they meant this thread to be for asking them about them, not questions about stuff. I sort of requested this thread, but I see the GAPAs were to embarrassed to add that you can send in compliments! heehee… 
THANK YOU!
I think we should send in money or at least pies.

hey i was gonna request this thread! no, really. *tires to think of the question he had* *cant do it* umm why does my printer give my computer BSODs when i try to print anything? (i installed all my driver correctly, and yet i get newly installed hardware or software failure messages on said BSODs.) and a strange thing that seems to be working now is that when i right click a document in the finder, or whatever windows calls it and click print, it prints without killing my computer. yes, i know that you are unable to answer this question, but i had to post a question. and i would like to know the answer, so that i can fix it.

18 – Not necessarily. Did you see the first one? This is for asking questions about anything.
Robert – what kinds of things do you write for Science? What is your favorite type/kind of science?
0

GAPAs, do you check with each other before creating new threads, or say, “What kind of crazy idea made you make THAT thread?!!!” to each other? Or do you just create them as requested/needed? Just wondering…

I edit more than I write. My “beat” is physical sciences, including physics, astronomy, chemistry, math — basically, anything that doesn’t breathe or bleed. I also get dinosaurs, which used to be alive but are rocks now. I don’t have a favorite area, but I tend to get the most satisfaction out of math stories, because they’re hard to explain in a way that makes people want to read them.
(21),
We usually just go with the flow and surprise one another.

Oh! I have another question. Back when the hot pink bunnies first appeared in Muse Mail (about 4 years ago), did any of you guys suspect that they’d be such a big hit, even today?

On average, I have no idea. For any given block of 50, might be anywhere from 0 to all. The luck of the draw, really.

The Pie Isle thread.
(12, 16, &c)
Here are the “odds and ends” I do:
I’m director of a small museum, the 1811 homeplace of a Quaker family. Since we own one of the two existing false-bottomed wagons used for transporting people to freedom, I get to participate in many illuminating conversations about slavery, race, and social conscience.
This past year, I’ve also been teaching painting to adults with developmental disabilities.
My number one love, however, is creating art. These days I’m a watercolorist and a graphics artist, and my goal is to do them full-time.
0

29 – Is this the museum you’re talking about? “Historic Jamestown SocietyMendenhall Plantation
The Historic Jamestown Society investigates, preserves, and makes available the history of Jamestown, its environs, and its people. Towards that end, this society preserves and maintains and opens to the public the Mendenhall Plantation, an 1811 Quaker home and farm. At the Mendenhall Plantation, visitors each year enter “The Other South” of 19th century dissenters, and learn of their anti-slavery and pacifist views, their respect for education, honesty, equality, and self-reliance.”
Will you scan/post some of your paintings? I’d really like to see them!
23 – That sounds fun! What kind of editing? I’m an editor for my school newspaper, and I get to do all of the Copyediting, since nobody else likes doing that. It’s really fun! I want to be an editor for Muse when I grow up, and if that doesn’t happen, I want to do something with GeoPolitics.

Why don’t you guys insert your views into things very often? This might seem like a dumb Q, but I’m just wondering.

Robert and Rosanne:
How many letters do you get for the Q&A every month? how do you pick which ones to put in the mag? Are you more likely to pick people if you know they’re MBers?
Hope no one asked these already but i’m too lazy to read the whole thread.

So many questions. OK, here goes with a few…
(27),
The bunnies surprised everybody, and I have a feeling they’re not finished yet.
(31),
I own an oldish iMac (the “upside-down mixing bowl” kind) at home, but I use a Dell PC at work. I also do a lot of moderating on my trusty Treo 650, though I make more mistakes on its tiny screen and keyboard.
(32),
We live and work in different states–or, in Paul Baker’s case, on the other side of the Atlantic Ocean. Most of us never see one another at all. But with luck, I’ll get to see Rosanne this weekend, when she’ll be back here in the East visiting her parents.
(34),
There are four of us now. At the time of last year’s “Ask the GAPAs” thread, it was just Rosanne and me. Rosanne came on board about two months after MuseBlog started. Before that, in the ancient Gaboomba days and earlier, I ran the whole show by myself. It’s more fun now.
(34, other question),
Blogging isn’t expensive. The software is free, and renting space on a Web server is fairly cheap nowadays. As long as my computer and scanner keep working, there really aren’t any other expenses.

What ever happened to that Muse writer… what was his name… Steve Mirsky? Do you know? Did he actually write anything more than a quiz or two and and the how to become a fossil article?
It’s an odd question, I know, but I remember vividly the how to become a fossil article and his thanksgiving quiz.
0
0
Steve Mirsky lives in New York and works at Scientific American magazine, where he writes a humor column called “Anti Gravity” and does podcasts. We’ve been buddies for years. His Muse article on becoming a fossil was based on one I asked him to write for me when I was an editor at Earth magazine. I was very pleased with the way it turned out and am glad you liked it.

Question: Why couldn’t Muse magnazine use the real muses…? Or at least do an article on them? (guessing they’ve done one, but MEH! I’ll say what pops into my head if I want to, darnit.)
And the recent Muse Mail section made me wonder- what ARE the actual muse genders?

44- If you were trying to trick us into thinking that you were an administrator, it didn’t work. Their names come up in green. Hmm…
Is it possible to pose as an administrator? Could you somehow manage to get all of their privilages? Like making new threads and stuff? Interesting….
0

45 – Yes, you could do that. The procedure is relatively easy (except for one little step)
Step by step method for hacking the Administrator Code:
[Two little steps. The first one is inveigling the current Administrators into allowing davidude to post his simple, fool-proof instructions. –Robert]

(47) Necromancer, I own several hundred tubes of paint, hundreds more pastels, colored pencils, inks, and so on. Except for replacement duplicates, each is a different color. My favorite is usually the one I’m using at a given moment.
On the other hand, the colors I’m drawn to when shopping for clothes and stuff, tend to be burgundies, turquoises, and silver-greys.
As for the rest of Prarilius Canix’s questions regarding the afterlife, oblivion would be a treat compared to getting stuck for eternity in an elevator with a loud-mouthed bigot. Heaven would be time to do all the things I love to do now and to be with the people I care about.

43-The first Muse issue did an article about the original muses and why they chose to use the “New Muses”. Here is the explanation:
“When we interviewed the ancient Muses for the job of inspiring interest in our readers, we found, to our surprise, that only one qualified. The rest seemed worn down, burned out, almost bored–after all they’ve been in retirement for nearly two thousand years. And anyway, the arts and sciences they know aren’t really very current; knowledge has grown a lot since they were in charge of inspiration.
“So we advertised for a new bunch. The response was overwhelming. Thousands of Muse applications swamped the office. We worked long into the night, sifting through piles and piles of job applications. Finally, after months of interviewing, standardized testing, and random drug checks, it came down to these nine….” And everyone knows who the New Muses are

I’m working on it, but the file got corrupted and has to be cleaned up line by line. I might finish it this weekend.
(54),
My favorite issue would have to be the November/December 2003 Tolkien issue. I had great fun helping Larry Gonick concoct a plot for “Lard of the Rings.” I don’t think I have a permanent favorite Muse. I probably have the most in common with Urania, but there’s a sweetness to Feather that appeals to me.

(59) RtH, sorry we hadn’t answered number 28 yet.
My bosses — the Board of Directors at the museum — don’t mind my moderating. Then again, whenever I’ve tried to explain anything about MuseBlog to them, they just nod their heads and smile very very carefully.
My other boss is me, and I give myself full permission.
As for how did I get into something this time consuming? — truth is, I’m gullible to a fault and believed Robert completely when he said, as a GAPA, “you may find yourself spending even less time on the blog than you do now . . . .” Right. But I forgive him.

I can’t help it. I’m just a “glass half full” kind of guy.
0

77- Umm, no. But I can see why you would be confused. Today, latin is a dead language, though it formed the roots of several languages used widely today. It was used origianally around Rome and was the official language of the ancient Roman empire, and is still used by the Roman Catholic Church. Greek is a language spoken in Greece, that has evolved in one of the oldest recorded civilizations for millenia. Ancient Rome and Ancient Athens are easy to confuse because they share a lot of the same traits, even the same gods. Don’t worry, I ask stupid questions all the time.

Oh. Well maybe it is someone else. I don’t really know. This conversation is getting a bit out of place, though. We should move it to the random thread, probably.

117 – I was wondering the same thing too. Evie – is there any specific reason you call Jadestone Jade?
0
0
125
Um, because I’m lazy and happen to think less of people online as aliens when they have a more natural sounding name? And because I like giving people short names?
:sweat: My apologies. If this is about the “Jade(stone?)” thing, I wasn’t questioning Jadestone’s choices or anything I just really want to say Jade instead of Jadestone but realized she (she, right? darn genderissues…) might get mad so I added that…
Ack. Sorry.
…I think it may be an addiction with the shortnames thing. Seriously, one of my friends had a long name and she doesn’t like any nicknames that come with it, so I started calling her Lizzy. Her name is Christiana. Sometimes I call her Liz.
…it’s a problem. I should get therapy… Sorry Panda.
Purple Panda.
Agh.

Yesh I call her Lizzy… I’ve also convinced some people at school that this is her name… it’s how I introduce her.
GAPA question-to-make-this-not-off-topic-and-for-the-heck-of-it: is that cruel of me to do to her?

semi-related to 116- Wasn’t there a theory or something about the universe as a cosmic muffin, or using it as an example, or something? I was listening to Deteriorata a while ago and there was a phrase about a “cosmic muffin” so I asked my parents and I thought their reply was something like that. Deteriorata’s a funny song. I’m being random.

139- An April Fools’ joke, some would say gone horribly wrong. The hot pink bunnies took over and closed all threads except the bunny-related ones they made. Rebecca-gapa just opened a few, this one and the RRR v.2007.3 are the ones I know about. I desperately hope you knew that and were asking for those threads to be opened. I agree.

I had a lot of fun with this April-Fool’s joke in the beginning…making HPB pictures, etc., but enough is enough. I think it will be gone by tomorrow, though. If it isn’t, I think it would be MuseBlog Suicide.

Everything is back to normal (well, MuseBlog-normal) now except for the : idea : smiley. I can change that back, too, if you like. MBers have been demanding a bunny smiley for ages, but maybe some will be having second thoughts.

Oh! Hi! I asked a question in the April Showers thread about the Muse Contest. I had no idea we had this thread! I shall ask it again! Do make up our own origami from scratch, or can we fold something that has already been folded before?
0
0
Evie (121): Wungs remain mysterious. But the audio report from Violetfire on Purple Panda and Taiwan Hippo Phan’s musecast here cleared things up a bit.
emmatheduck (39): We get the questions for the Q&A in a trickle with sporadic bursts. Usually we’ll get one or two a week until a burst comes along with a dozen or so. The questions don’t come directly to us — first they go to the people at Carus who send them to us. That is unless we answer a question directly from MuseBlog. How do we pick them, you ask. We choose questions that are kind of hard to answer, otherwise what’s the p0int. But if they’re too hard we skip them.

Okay, I am really sorry about that post I just did. The GAPAS wlll probably zap it though. I was testing the you-can’t-post-twice-in-15-seconds theory, but I don’t think that I got down to the bottom of the page quickly enough.
It was strange, because my computer blocked me from most of the threads on March 31st, before Museblog had the bunny threads, or went over and became Bunnyblog. Weird

153 – That MC was fun to make! THF wrote the script, VF (Roberta F*) read it, and I did all the computerized technical stuff and edited it.

196- That’s a good idea. I post a lot, but I’m new, so there’s probably not a lot of posts by comparison. I’ve posted 29 posts on a maybe a little above average thread. Let’s say twenty posts per thread, 10 threads… 200 posts.
How close is that, GAPAs?

The easiest way is to search comments (which I can do but you can’t) for your e-mail address (which I can see but you can’t) and count the number of hits. It gets tricky when people change e-mail addresses or use dummy ones. I’m not eager to turn into a blog statistician.

210 – yeah. Sometimes I use bogus email addresses (which are usually “obviouslybogus@obviouslybogus.com”) when I am other places, such as the library, etc., because it saves the email address and I don’t want some random stalker to find me. And when I started posting on MB I used an email address (which sounded really weird but was actually a real email address) that I use for other websites, etc. that I may need an email address for, because I don’t want spammy stuff on my “ggod/real” email address (which I currently use for MB, because soon after I started I trusted MB not to spam me. I didn’t think it would from the start, but you never know…).

I’ve always used my rel e-mail for MB, except I thik once on the alter-ego thread when I didn’t want even the GAPAs to know who I really was. Then I think I used somewhere@something.com or something like that.

17 – weird – your bogus e-mail address turned into a link.
My very first post, back in February, was after a series of posts by Dracasting over several hours asking if anyone was there. Wanting to be safe, I used the name “:0)” and the e-mail address “rdrd@yahoo.com”. My message was simply, “Hi there”. It didn’t get moderated.

Hey GAPAs, I have a request. Could you make another RRR? I know there are,like, three out, but could you PLEASE make another one? I have some really good ideas. Most of the other ones are fantasy, and a couple are science fiction, so could we do a fractured fairy-tale one? You know, where you mess up or change around classic fairy tales. Like “Wicked” and “The Stinky Cheese Man.” PRETTY PLEASE WITH SUGAR ON TOP?

I wouldn’t mind one of those either. Comedy’s good, though I do like serious stuff.

We run “Musery Loves Company.” The magazine gave us permission to use images of the Muses. We’re not getting rich off it, though. Our markup is so small (and sales volume, ahem, so low) that it actually costs us money to run the shop, but it’s fun to do.

Well, here’s a question: why hot pink bunnies? Did you have any idea that they would become their own side in cat and dog wars? I read the article by Paul Baker (and very amusing it was, too) but it didn’t really explain it, or if it did, it didn’t make any sense, being in Elizabethan.
0
0
The editors wanted some way to censor offending cat/dog posts, and the art department came up with the bunnies. You can read more about them here:
https://musefanpage.com/NewFiles/message_archive_1.html#43
Nobody had any idea that they would become as popular and significant as they did.

I tried too, and it didn’t work either. Why can’t you still post on the Gaboomba?
262 – Never would have thought the bunnies came from something like that! Why didn’t they just use black rectangles? That would make the censored parts more scary.

Yes. The Gaboomba closed for business once MuseBlog came on line.

How many continents are there?!?
Our English teacher told us there were 8 now, not 7. Is this true?? If so, why didn’t anyone bother to tell me?!

269-According to a website I just found: “The seven continents are North America, South America, Europe, Asia, Africa, Australia, and Antarctica. The island groups in the Pacific are often called Oceania but this name does not imply that scientists consider them the remains of a continent.”
Maybe that’s what he/she was referring to?

For fonts you go to control panel and drag the font into the fonts folder. I think.

There’s no scientific definition of “continent.” Their names and numbers are something that geographers decided. For example, why separate Europe from Asia? There’s no ocean between them.
Maybe your teacher thinks Greenland deserves to be a continent. If so, there’s no real way to argue that it’s not one (though geologically it belongs with North America).

274- Yup, he said it was a continent. We were all very suprized. I mean, we learned the 7 and no one told us things had changed. That bothered me.

I wouldn’t worry about it. It’s arbitrary. Like Pluto: Pluto hasn’t disappeared just because some astronomers (most of whom study stars, not planets) voted to stop calling it a planet. It’s still out there and still as interesting (or uninteresting, if you’re not into it) as it was before. Pluto doesn’t care.
Maybe your teacher’s ancestors came from Denmark. Denmark owns Greenland. I can see how a little country like that would like to own a continent.

276 – Did you know they launched a probe to Pluto Jan 06? It’ll reach that forlorn icy planet 2011ish.

275 – If you look on a globe, Greenland is too small to be a continent. And besides, practically nobody lives there. And there’s no useful things to do there, unlike Antarctica. Greenland has the title of the largest island, but it should not be the smallest continent. (It is totally freaky how much this sounds like the Pluto debate)

Hey GAPAs: is too much screen time bad for your eyes?

281 – Robert or Rosanne can probably answer this scientifically for you, but I think it depends on the kind of screen. Some screens are better for your eyes.

GAPAs: How many messages has MuseBlog gotten total? Like, the combined number of everybody’s posts?
0

Yes! New shirt! I would buy a ton of the stuff if it had my signature on it!
How come FAQs are never actually frequently asked questions? They’re always just things that the creators thought people would like to know!
Also – How many posts do I have? If it’s too much trouble don’t bother, but twould be froody to know….

When was the shirt made? More than a year ago? Because I was on about a year ago, but then I got out of the habit, and I just got back recently.
