From Oliver:

I feel safe and comfortable with Tabulas. Here, I can work myself into creative shape in a consequence-free environment. I can try to stimulate myself and get my juices going in front of you, an understanding group of friends. If I suck, I can count on you to forgive me. Also, many of your standards have been significantly and permanently lowered by regularly reading Roy’s Tabulas.
