connections

a strange evening of networking tonight. connecting with Janet first and Doug on MSN Messenger, briefly, then with Doug on iVisit, he brings Bard, an old friend online from Seattle, the Bill and I try to connect via CUSeeMe, that doesn’t work, so I talk him through iVisit where we meet briefly, and in the mean time, after Doug and Bard leave, first Dana shows up, with tonsillitis, and then a fellow that had joined the online bed-in for peace (out of New Zealand) last weekend, connected, he’s an engineer for the Pakistani Army in Islamabad. wild combination of connections. Seattle, Washington; New York City; Westchester, New York; Islamabad, Pakistan; Livermore, California; Chino Valley, Arizona, all to here in Carelia.
