I found stats that say almost 70% of the US population are "internet users." I bet considerably fewer than 70% are actually internet-savvy, or likely to do any publishing. The internet can only be a great equaliser if you have access to it, and even then, that's no guarantee of shit.
agreed. like I said above there are huge amount of the population at the library that don't know google or search engines. and they don't blog ( but then neither do I ) they don't anything like our boards. and then there are people like my mom, who has had access to the internet for years - and is really just dipping into it.
If you publicly opposed it for those reasons how could that convince someone not to marry until their dying day?
Spite and one hell of a final flipped bird strike me as possible reasons.
It doesn't say why Gassman opposed the marriage, just that she didn't relinquish the control she had gained. I supposed it's possible that Winters wanted a wedding she could no longer afford. Not that I know anything of the law.

And people who just plain don't care about the sharing aspects of it. The assumption that everyone is facile with the net and exploiting it and giving a damn really makes me itch.
I just got a Salon Personals Cupid Report email. Why is it reminding me I have a profile? Because I just (no, really) became gender-relations bitter, I bet. I was talking with an instructor at krav and he'd heard I have a fan club. Now he
knew
the other female instructors had fan clubs, but only heard of mine second hand. That's not fair. I want one with better PR.
And, of course, I also don't want one at all. But still.
See My Vest!
It KILLS me that the dude's name is Burns.
And, of course, I also don't want one at all. But still.
Well, it one must have a fan club, one would prefer said fan club not to be lame-ass.

It's true! I know I'll never have the best fan club (the competition isn't just steep, it's decisive) but I would like one willing to represent.
Is that so much for a girl to ask?
We could picket... "BETTER (OR NO) FANCLUB FOR ITA!!"
So you have a fan club with bad marketting skills?
I have a rumoured fan club. Not yet spotted in the wild, but tracks have been found.

How about droppings?
ION, the space proble to Pluto sounds like it will launch in a few minutes (10:08 board time).
