Concerning the DHAW, I'm really torn and don't really know what to do. What would be a wise choice? The pro and the contra side both have valid points.
Skein on LJ reminded me of the interview (the one watcher also mentioned) where DH said that he doesn't like the word 'awesome'. Don't know how serious he meant this in a funny questionnaire, don't think he really dislikes this word so much that he doesn't want to hear it ever again, but well, it made me think if this idea is so very good.
Maybe Gero was really only making his comment because he wanted to allude to the fact that DH doesn't like the word. Or maybe he doesn't even know that (it's not something you tell everyone every day after all) and was really just looking for a funny way to say that he does admire DH's superb acting skills.
So will David think we want to annoy him because he doesn't like the word "awesome" or has he already forgotten about this answer in the questionnaire by now? Will he get scared because of all the postcards or would he like the attention and fan love? Will he be spammed or will someone else sort all the mail he gets? Would he rather like us to donate something instead of spending so much money on postage (all fans combined) or would he simply see this as a nice gesture/compliment/funny event and be fine with it?
I don't know. I said on LJ that I'll participate, because I'd like to be part of an international fan project, it sounds funny and I like the idea of fans from all over the world to do something together, and I'd love to take the time to look for a nice postcard for him. I do see the danger that he might not like the idea, for various reasons. But in the end I guess he might see this as what it is: A funny fan event from people who like him.
One thing though: I WILL write my name under it. I know it's supposed to be anonymous, but I don't think that's a good idea. Of course I will really only write this one sentence and nothing else about me, but I will write my name and country under it (xxx from yyy), because I think it's impolite not to do that. And I think it might be even more interesting if he can easily see from where all these cards have been sent off. I bet he gets cards from many places, and that's part of the fun, to see that there are so many people everwhere on the world who like him. So I think we should mention it, as succintly as possible.
My two cents.
Bye, A.
