>> I wasn't talkin' about you, I was talking about Mike and the advertisors.

Hi Mike,

A couple of points:

1. I hope the advertisers don't start controller the topics around here, it will be time for me to leave. This is for us and the advertisers are *lucky* they have such a way to reach the people they want to sell to.

2. You are in a unique position. Most of the people here are full time consultants and this is something that would be talked about in the office. What's happening to you is you're seeing the world through some experienced eyes and finding it "creepy". Wish you didn't have to but I can't keep this from you because it did happen.

Believe it or not, the dicussion is good. It helps people deal with the situation and may prevent a similar incident from happening. You'd never know that because it's a path that was never followed. I'm sure there is a term for this but I can't come up with it.

Regardless, despite your age, you have proven to be a very beneficial member of the community. When you come on a thread like this that creeps you, skip it. It doesn't prove your weak just that you're a mature individual.

Best
