Facebook has progressed from a student project at Harvard. Everyone’s on now, even my father (my wife being the lone exception in the Northern Hemisphere). On top of that groups are springing up encompassing nearly every possible affinity group.

I actually recognized a few names–but only a few. Most of them lit no lightbulb for me. I wonder if I was memorable at all? A few years ago I had contact with a junior high teacher I’d really liked and he had no idea who I was.
What was cool was to read about one particular teacher in my junior high who I always thought was weird. As it turns out everyone else thought that as well!
