Re: Research project

For what it's worth, the CompuServe Garden Forum folks have had several
get-togethers over the years. When we've gotten together, except for putting
names to faces and getting some big surprises sometimes!, we've found that
folks are pretty much what they're like as an e-voice. Like one gal said,
it's hard to put on a fake persona day in and day out for a couple of years.

Of course I think there's some natural filtering, too. We all can manage to
get by on computers, we all are gardeners, and most of us are pretty
passionate about gardening, or we wouldn't be here.
