The commentaries in this forum provide thoughtful and stimulating responses to my article, ‘Keeping You Post-ed’. My answer will first focus on naming specific periods of time, after which I focus on the impact that the designation ‘post’ has, and for how long, before moving to the question of new languages. Finally, I suggest that we should relinquish the optimism too often nested in a ‘post’ situation and rather concentrate on labors that convey hope.
