etc. There is a great network of shelters and people trying to pull pets from death row. I can go on and on...so there can be some good in it. As we see too...there is some bad.

One thing is for sure I blocked everybody at work. Have never used my full name and have very little personal info on it. I prefer to be anonymous on FB and NOT "know" people really.

It has been a great organizing tool form me, first to find more Dems in a purple town and later in building support for the community radio station we were putting together.

I like the connective power of social media over what I could previously do by email alone.

But that's me.
