Just heard from a Subscriber -- my E-Mails go to his "Promotions" Box. I didn't even know there was such a box (I use Mozilla's Thunderbird to download my E-Mails to my computer).

Now I think I need to go onto the web and check my E-Mails there, and check all the boxes I didn't even know I had!

Or is it a joke on *who*.

I think no one Absolutely, Actually, Essentially, Even, Honestly, Literally, Really, Seriously, Totally knows ... but lot's of people pretend that they do.

As I said, Kurt Vonnegut never defined that Sect.

I enjoyed Vonnegut way back in my youth.

What has stayed in my mind was his idea that a girl with seal type fur might be a super handy adaptation for an unknown future.

Maybe that was an early example of predictive programming.

Thanks for the comments --

But I haven't heard from anyone who hasn't received my E-Mails.

Why don't all the people who don't get my E-Mails write me? Is Google even censoring their unwritten E-Mails?

Look, let’s just make this simple:

Do you admit to, or deny, knowing or not knowing, whether Google did or did not censor your E-Mail that you might not have sent because you did or did not receive that E-Mail that might or might not have been censored by Google that you don’t know whether or not I sent to you because you never received it? If so, then explain why would Google be censoring your E-Mail that you didn’t send in response to the E-Mail you didn’t receive. It’s either that, or Court Marshall.

Sorry, I just got through reading Joseph Heller’s Catch-22 – my innate sense of flawless logic has gone through the blender and it’ll take awhile to recover. Now have moved on to James Joyce’s Ulysses and Charlotte Bronte’s Jane Eyre. Those books should keep me occupied for awhile, and who know what they will do to my brain.

I just checked my iPhone junk folder. I found 40 or so emails from the GOP and Ron Johnson that had been automatically diverted to junk status. While I don’t really want that many solicitations, that’s my decision...... not Apple’s.

I switched to iPhone because I read that they are better than google when it comes to these issues.

I am not pleased.....

I use Proton and it showed up in my box without issue, as one would expect.

Hi Tim, just FYI, this post did not go to spam for me, at least. Keep fighting the good fight!
