Has this freaked you out?

Hum,
Why does
ask im/personal question?
Ok, the simplest explanation is that he/she is genuinely
interested
in our viewpoints, and just wants to know what we think...
Or , perhaps is just being witty and jovial...
But is this a
naive
viewpoint....?
1.0) A rather more
sinister
aspect is that he/she may be compiling a secret dossier containing psychological profiles on each and every one of
us
(for reasons unbeknown)...
stop reading here...>
We know that newbies are joining A.Org all the time, but
where
is everyone?
I won't go as far as saying `
alien abduction
`, or `
Solent Green
`, but you get the picture...
2.0) There is also the rather disturbing idea that perhaps they don't actually
know
the answer to the question themselves, and are using us to do their `homework`....
Eg.
Why do they want to know if it's raining outside my house
? (
Do i live in a house
...)?
2.1)Similarly, they could be
too lazy
to answer the question themselves.
Eg.
Do you like this sort of music...
?
3.0) And of course we can't discount the idea that by answering the questions we are unwitting being precisely targeted for Spam and data-mining Internet
bots
...
So,
Has this freaked you out
?
Oh, happy Solstice everyone! :-)

Hum,
Well that`s
just
my point....
The stalker has to be good (er, like CIA/SPECTRE trained) for me
not
to notice
anything
....
:lol:
No, i was just making a pointless remark about
pointless questions
here...
:-)
