Yes, Facebook it is limited to Facebook members. But today, not having a

what you thought of those people.


Let's try this post again...

Mercy! I knew people 10 years ago who lacked e-mail accounts...still know some
today in the same condition. They've made a choice - just as I have to not
(never?) have a cell phone. Sometimes they've volunteered the reason(s) for
their choice, sometimes I've asked. The reasons have ranged from dinosauric
geezerism to they simply saw no need. In no case have I ever thought the less
of them for their choice.

Options are good, in both life and soaring XC...IMO.

For the record, I've yet to detect a compelling-to-me reason to become a
Facebook user.
