    TW> the picture in quesation that I was refered to was NOT public    
      
   at that time, yes... but still... the blanket statement of "i don't do   
   facebook" was what i was aiming at... it doesn't matter if "you" have a FB   
   account or not... the statement implys that "you" wouldn't "go there" even if   
   the item of discussion was public and open to everyone...   
      
   ML>besides, FB isn't "that bad" and one only need use common sense   
   ML>just like in any other area so as to stay out of the bad stuff...   
      
    TW> I did not imply that it was Bad, Just that I don't do facebook.    
      
   i guess this is a simple matter of perspective, then... see above for further   
   clarification...   
      
   FWIW: i was of similar mind a few years ago... until i actuall took a look,   
   tested the watersm and learned more about the site ;)   
      
   then i found not only the networking aspect (ie: networking with those around   
   you) but also the games and other services FB offers... if i had to offer a   
   guess, i'd say that i now spend <80% of my time (outside of other activities)   
   on FB simply because it offers a much larger audience than any BBS can or has   
   ever offered...   
      
   there are times that i share items of interest (to me) that other might be   
   interested in that would never have been posted on any BBS... articles from   
   "the register", nasa, various government entities, and even just plain old   
   funnt stuff like that posted on damnyouautocorrect.com (which has screenshots   
   of text messages from smartphones where the automatic spelling correction has   
   "twisted" words into something "else" quite unintended ;)
