weird fact

is that I know more about some of you on here's likes and dislikes than I do, say, my own extended family, or people living on my street.

Odd that.

I think I'm going to make a questionnaire saying things like: Top 5 films, Who do you fancy most off TV, Who do you vote for, What is your feeling on the Iraq War etc etc and post through all the letterboxes on my street.

Whadda you reckon?

We could, in fact, all be the same person, conversing with different aspects of our personality! What do you mean? Well it's like on on-line version of Multiple Personality Disorder. But who's to say it's a "Disorder"? Is it not healthy to dissociate our various personas? Well maybe, in the right context, but who... WE ARE TAKING OVER. WE ARE INFILTRATING. BOLLOX BOLLOX BOLLOX. Hello Borg. Don't encourage him/she/it/them! Who asked you? He did. Who did? Him there? Him where? That person in the corner talking to himself. * slap! * ...phew, I thought it'd never end...

Yet another weird fact. A polices spokesman has warned about bogus calls to your land or mobile phone. If you receive a call form some one clamming to be an engineer checking you're line and asking you to press some numbers, the hash key and then hang up. Hang up immediately, as this will give the bogus caller direct access to you're sim card or land line. Hears the bit that made me laugh. The polices spokesman then went on to say.. *We believe that the main source of these bogus Calls are originating from prisons. Convicts are tapping in to these lines to make long distances calls and to gain access to chat and pornography numbers* And who says crime doesn't pay!

I think it's a good idea. It's scary that we don't know our own neighbours. The people in Leeds must have felt the same... *shudder* Keep in mind that if you get a 30% return of your questionnaire, you'll be doing very well, indeed. Good luck!

Fergs ... do you really think we are actually these very same cyber personalities in real life? Good god: I don't know about you, but I'd string myself up in a second if I were! Authors are normally very private persons ... we experiment with each others psyche to see if our literal/metaphorical assumptions impact the way we like them to! And I bet you most here don't say more than a mere hello to other strangers outside this box persona! There are simply minds talking to minds here. And good or bad, in its own rite and light, it's the most wonderful thing you can do for or as a writer. If anyone ever wrote a book about the goings on in these forums, they'd make a bloody squillion dollars overnight! I hope I haven't given my own game away ... ))) gulp (((

I've always said these forums are a brilliant anthropological study: or as Missi said, a microcosm of humanity. Real or imagined...

That's a fairly existential question, John. What 'is' real?

Yes well a.g, Quite. I think reality is purely defined within the determinism of the individual. But thats another question. ~: Cheks feet.. they seem real.
