ML>at that time, yes... but still... the blanket statement of "i don't do   
   ML>facebook" was what i was aiming at... it doesn't matter if "you" have a FB   
   ML>account or not... the statement implys that "you" wouldn't "go   
   ML>there" even i the item of discussion was public and open to    
   ML>everyone...   
      
    TW> TRUE, BUT that does not mean I don't like Faceboob but jsut see NO   
    TW> use for it for ME.   
      
   i can understand that... numerous folk in my circle are of the same mind...   
   then when they go to tell me about something i end up cutting them off because   
   i already know about it from traffic only a few hours old from posts on FB...   
   for example, we had a reunion this weekend... i was talking with my father,   
   who is very much like you, and was speaking of certain ones who would not be   
   there... one of those had just posted that they had a fever of 101.5 and   
   wouldn't be there because of strep throat... dad had just found this out and   
   came to tell me before i got a chance to tell him... there's been several   
   hundred instances like this, too... oh well... there's that saying about   
   horses and water, ya know? ;) :P   
      
   [TRIM]   
      
    TW> And I can see the need for that in some lives. JUST not Mine!!   
      
   hey, no need to get all worked up (multiple exclamation points) about it...   
   i'm not trying to convert you... i understand... i was just pointing out the   
   benefits... sure, if you don't keep up with friends and family, that's your   
   boat to row... not a problem... enjoy it whilst you can ;)
