I've never even *thought* of socializing with anyone on here; it's just a place to obtain information and exchange ideas. Now I'm *dumbfounded* at the byzantine sociopolitical undercurrents of which I've become aware as a result of this post and your previous one in the same vein...
This is the second time, recently, that I've realized what a blessing is my nearly complete alienation from humanity... (the first was upon seeing what happened to a friend when she divorced, and had to deal with a circle of friends and their mixed loyalty to her and her "ex").
Oy, vay...
Thank God most FReepers are still fighting on the same side (I think).
