Tremendously grateful that this group exists. Happy birthday, and may there be many, many more. (I will especially remember and appreciate the group was in the 90s following Cage's death--which was also exactly when I was working on my dissertation. What a great way to meet so many other members of the Cage community! So thanks again for having the idea in the first place, and for then actually implementing it, and finally, for keeping it running for THREE DECADES! You've done a real service!

Being less active is not necessarily bad:
I love the long silences that occur in the group.

Silence is less active now than it was in 1993, but it's still fantastic. I'm glad it still has a home and I'm grateful for all the interesting discussions that have happened over the years.

My notes tell me that the first message on the Silence list was thirty years ago today. I'm pleased to see how it continues to serve as a resource and network for those of us who are still learning from the work of John Cage.
