I went to dinner at a friends house the other night.  We were discussing
someone they had met in their condo who was a big time professor.  In the
course of the conversation I mentioned that he was probably on the net.
They said really, show us how to look.

We went and put his name into altavista and up came about ten pages of
hits.  I said, I bet you are in here too (because she has been involved i=
n
local issues).  Sure enough, up came two pages of hits.

Then I put in my name.  Two pages of hits.  All but one were my responses
on this listserv (archives).  I was amazed.  And I should know enough not
to be amazed!

We then looked up her son (2 pages of hits she didn't realize).  Then we
looked up my daughter.  I was taken aback to see her picture and name on
the net.  Someone else she knew in high school had included her in their
page.

I guess we should all be looking from time to time to see what the world
knows about us that we didn't know about.
