schestowitz[17:43] <schestowitz> nothing to fear about itJan 26 19:01
schestowitz[17:43] <somene> apparentlyJan 26 19:01
schestowitz[17:43] <schestowitz> anyway, another point is:Jan 26 19:01
schestowitz[17:43] <somene> even so, my old identi was #2 on the google resultsJan 26 19:01
schestowitz[17:43] <schestowitz> would it be bad to be associated with me?Jan 26 19:01
schestowitz[17:43] <somene> for that nameJan 26 19:01
schestowitz[17:44] <somene> noJan 26 19:01
schestowitz[17:44] <schestowitz> as one might say the implication would be thatJan 26 19:01
schestowitz[17:44] <somene> It's be bad for my family to know that I've been chatting when I should be doing other thingsJan 26 19:01
schestowitz[17:44] <somene> :)Jan 26 19:01
schestowitz[17:44] <schestowitz> you're entitled to your opinionJan 26 19:01
schestowitz[17:44] <somene> YesJan 26 19:01
schestowitz[17:44] <schestowitz> when I google people's name I often find embarrassing thingsJan 26 19:01

schestowitz[17:44] <schestowitz> one girl I dated - I found out she had 2 kids she hadn't told me aboutJan 26 19:01
schestowitz[17:45] <somene> okJan 26 19:01
schestowitz[17:45] <schestowitz> now, *that's* more of a problem than chatter on some tech siteJan 26 19:01
schestowitz[17:45] <somene> Lol I guessJan 26 19:01
schestowitz[17:45] <somene> Let's just say if these chat logs became obvious to family, then I may not be on here in the futureJan 26 19:01
schestowitz[17:46] <schestowitz> you've said nothing inappropriateJan 26 19:01
schestowitz[17:46] <somene> And it has nothing to do with you sJan 26 19:02
schestowitz[17:46] <schestowitz> Some people, like Patrick (diablo) doJan 26 19:02
schestowitz[17:46] <schestowitz> But they don't give a blipJan 26 19:02
schestowitz[17:46] <somene> It's more that I'm spending time when I should be doing other things oftenJan 26 19:02
schestowitz[17:46] <somene> That's allJan 26 19:02
schestowitz[17:46] <somene> it isn't the contentJan 26 19:02
schestowitz[17:46] <schestowitz> Activism is importantJan 26 19:02
schestowitz[17:46] <somene> yesJan 26 19:02
schestowitz[17:47] <schestowitz> ir also helps you build credibilityJan 26 19:02
schestowitz[17:47] <somene> but university and education is expensiveJan 26 19:02
schestowitz[17:47] <somene> They don't care about such thingsJan 26 19:02
schestowitz[17:47] <somene> They see the time spent, bamJan 26 19:02
schestowitz[17:47] <schestowitz> fair enough..Jan 26 19:02
schestowitz[17:47] <somene> Obviously, the answer is the spend less time on the channelJan 26 19:02
schestowitz[17:48] <somene> But this is an incredible source of informationJan 26 19:02

schestowitz[17:49] <somene> I just want to understand that it doesn't have to do with you or some disagreementJan 26 19:02
schestowitz[17:49] <somene> I do disagree with you from time to time, but that's because reasonable intellectuals have diagreementsJan 26 19:02
