Hah. Had a conversation about this with the missus after you sent a message to both of us out of the blue. We were wondering what you were up to and if you’d just sent messages to 100’s of people. Weren’t exactly general though, so pretty impressive commitment to your social experiment!

And there I thought you were just being friendly

Actually is a very good idea of a way to keep in proper touch with facebook ppl (I actually know all of my friends on facebook!!). And am glad to hear that people replied!
