I saw the poster of that relative when I visited BYU campus a couple weeks ago (at least, if we're talking about the same thing). I pointed it out to my family. They thought it was cool, I guess, that I have such connections.

Guys, I've never done a thing with any of the identities I've figured out (except ... that one time when I blew it by telling all of them that I knew who they were). Does that make me a stalker or a creeper? Or just a researcher?

The part where you've figured out _everyone_ qualifies you as a stalker.

Knew your first name from a comment you left on Katya's blog. And you said you were facebook friends with TBS and krebscout, so I just looked at their friend lists.

Why would not being friends with a lot of writers make you easier to find?

I dunno... Mayhaps writers are friends with lots of writers, so if you looked at someone and they were only friends with a couple writers, then you would know they were a reader.

I keep forgetting that I have twitter. Maybe I'll go on there and twitter something tonight.

Sorry I didn't get to this for a very long time (or it seems so because y'all talked a lot in the meantime). There's this guy, you see, who keeps insisting that I hang out with him. It's putting a serious crimp on my life. Can't get anything done.

Anyway. "We" meant "it happened in a neighborhood only about a mile from my house."

Yeah, I have never stalked or been stalked. But Fred knew my name. He was there at the Board booth when I came to pick up my t-shirt, and we introduced ourselves by 'nym when we met. But then they asked for my real name to pick up my t-shirt. A few others, as noted earlier, know my first name since it is part of my email. But hey, I honestly don't care. First person to make an comment on my blog gets a prize. Or at least a pat on the back. Virtually speaking.

I don't have to care because I am certain I don't know any of you in the real world, or know anyone that knows you.

We don't have any mutual facebook friends in common. /stalked you when you said no one had stalked you.

EDIT: Is your blog your last name on blogspot?

Ditto. I also watched some cute clips of your kids on youtube and skimmed through your wedding story on a really old webpage.

Don't you feel loved / creeped out?

Wow, that webpage is still up? Incredible.

Oddly enough, I do feel loved. Aww.

Nah. We're all just mods/admins in one forum or another.

42, I have never stalked you, nor do I know any information that will help me do so. Nor do I plan on stalking you (or anyone else).

But I will admit a mild curiosity as to whether or not we have any mutual friends. I've been going through a phase where my various friend worlds are colliding and it wouldn't surprise me if somehow you collided with, I dunno, someone I went to China with or something.

Gio, you can never be the last post in ALL forums. Because our admin forum will never bear your name.

That's okay. My name is in there often enough, because you all swoon for me so often. Sorry I'm a premie so I'm out of play. ] =

That would be either preemie, or pre-mee. If you spell it that way, it makes me think of premio, which is Spanish for prize, which you definitely are not.
