cd thacker Posted March 24, 2003 Share Posted March 24, 2003 <I>What is your place of domicile for the last 3-6 months? Please don't tell me/us about your nationality, this is FBI, CIA and INS's dept., it's none of my business. Secondly, please qualify that by a simple : Pro, semi-pro and fun/amateur/what have you.</I><P> Call me paranoid, but now that I think of it, why are we answering any of these questions? Are any of them your "business"? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sandy. Posted March 24, 2003 Author Share Posted March 24, 2003 Doug, please don't get paranoid. Yes and no to your question. If I sent you a question via email about something, I would be looking forward anxiously for a reply. Not knowing where you are or if you are in the same time zone as me, I would have waited for a long time and not getting answered. I would get very disappointed. Same thing can happen to you or to any of us. However, if I knew you are presently in Europe, and it is 4 am in the morning for you, then I would be happy to wait patiently. Does this make sense? This, I want to emphasis, is by no means intended to be an invasion on one's privacy. This time, I will not compile the list and republish it on PN so that it can be used by people outside of the community. If you are interested in the whereabout of a certain friend, you have to make a note for yourself. <BR>For the life of me, I would never have guessed that Michael K is in Berlin. All these time I thought he is right here in the U.S.. <BR>All I care about is the <B>time zone</B> you are in. As you can see from the responses, this is a very international community. <BR>I guess I should have elaborate that more on my initial request.<BR>You are right, it is none of my business. Nothing is.<BR>Cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

robert_clark Posted March 25, 2003 Share Posted March 25, 2003 So Sandy, you're not, after all, on the CIA payroll, which means you might be able to thread all this together and make something of it. Huh, if I had known!? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sandy. Posted March 25, 2003 Author Share Posted March 25, 2003 Robert, I do have a day job. I work for a textile company here in the U.S. and I am the excutive director of sales. As much as I wanted to work for the CIA, I am afraid they would turn me down - too dumb, don't know how to count, can't spell, bad grammar, etc., etc. May be you can give me a recommandation so that I can join them. No work, great pay, what a good prospect!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sandy. Posted March 26, 2003 Author Share Posted March 26, 2003 Hello Michael, It is incredible how similar the other threads are. I don't even know how I could have missed them all. My only excuse is I am on the road 40% of the time.... One hundred and sixty members (and counting) have posted their information upon this requset. If we added the ones who still have not sign in, I am pretty sure the number would go well over two hundred. I guess only a meticulous person like you can round up similar threads like that. What we should do with all these information, although it would require a lot of work and dedication, is to tabulate them and produce a directory. It would be extremely time consumming, but the only way to do it right is to compile all the names and information given in HTML format, such that the names and e-mail addresses can be linked. However, the worry of providing a list to the e-commerce people and spammers gives me a lot of hesitation. Can you share some thoughts ? Michael, I said it once, and I am saying it again, you never cease to amaze me. I supposed this is what we called wealth of information. Maybe we can find a volunteer :-) Very late good night from me, I need some sleep....I cannot even focus my eyes properly on the monitor ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
michael_kastner Posted March 26, 2003 Share Posted March 26, 2003 Okay, Sandy, have a nice nap! I myself thought of this too. First point is of course that I doubt many people had already previously "looked up" and/or found (i.e. via Searches here) everything I just posted, because who would search for "bread"? I would sooner search for "money" etc when it comes to Leica! Maybe we could invent a new category entitled "Statistics" or "Members" or "Leica users" etc. Tony, what do you think???
