[QUOTE="Iconoclast, post: 172224, member: 8906"] [I]ICON...I think it's just the opposite on sites. People exaggerate, bloviate, lie, fib, etc. They think they are invisible and can become whoever they want others to think they are. For example, chat rooms have people 55 yrs. old saying they are in their mid-20's. They weigh in at 430 lbs. and say they are the "athletic type"......yeah, for Sumo wrestling![/I] [I]There's a ton of cow manure that comes across sites. You have to take most of it with a grain of salt.[/I] [I]JMHO:)[/I] Moreluck, True enough!! Seperating the wheat from the chaff is not easy in cyber space that is for sure. Taking things with a grain of salt is certainly a healthy strategy when dealing with information in the message board world. We take for granted how much is communicated when we speak to each other. So many nuances are lost in computer communication that we make up for with a furitive glance, a leveling of the brow, or a simple hand gesticulation. [/QUOTE]
