I fear it's impossible to find any life or soul in the subject of spreadsheets, so it's not you! :)

Perhaps not, but now I have the sneaking suspicion that my Life Goal will be to Infuse Soul into Excel. It'll be my Holy Grail.

I can already imagine the resulting AI horror story! We might have to do an Excel intervention...

Oh the heresy! Excel is a wealth of soul. Really. I'd say it has a trickster's soul. Maybe Ken Kesey's.

At some point I will link you to some of the writing I do at my job, since it shows up online (horrors!) and you will see that I have almost perfect writing in voice that is third-person future tense neuter. It is utterly devoid of soul.
