Theos-Talk Archives (January 2003 Message tt00119)

PLEASE EXCUSE CAPS, MY BODY IS VERY ILL AND I AM HAVING DIFFICULTY 
SEEING MY MONITOR. I AM NOT SHOUTING.

DEAR MR. FORSTER AND GROUP MEMBERS,

THANKYOU MR. FORSTER FOR YOUR NOTE. 

OBVIOUSLY THERE IS NOTHING IN SAID POST 968 THAT REFERS TO ME. 
HOWEVER WHEN I WROTE MY FIRST POST ON THIS, I HAD CLICKED ON THE LINK 
D. CALDWELL PROVIDED 5 TIMES AND EACH TIME IT PULLED-UP MY OWN YAHOO 
PROFILE ! AFTER THE WORDS...

"Here is the information that Bill Meredith was apparently hesitant to
share with readers on Theos-Talk a few months ago. The "tale of 
Brigitte's transformation into Brian":"

THERE WAS MY YAHOO PROFILE ! SO WHAT WAS I TO THINK ? IT APPEARED 
THAT ONCE AGAIN I WAS BEING IDENTIFIED WITH BRIAN / BRIGITTE. 

AFTER I LEFT THE SITE AND CAME BACK AGAIN A FEW MOMENTS LATER, WHEN I 
AGAIN CLICKED ON THE LINK, IT THEN WENT TO AN ADD, AND THEN THE 
ACTUAL POST 968. I TRIED IT AGAIN AND I DID THE SAME THING, SO, 
SEEING THIS 968 POST, I IMMEDIATELY POSTED EXPLAINING WHY I HAD 
WRITTEN MY PREVIOUS POST, AND ASKING FOR AN EXPLANATION OF WHY MY 
YAHOO PROFILE HAD BEEN DISPLAYED WHEN I INITIALLY CLICKED THAT LINK 
THAT D. CALDWELL PROVIDED. 

PLEASE UNDERSTAND THAT I HAVE NEVER HAD A COMPUTER AND BEEN ONLINE 
BEFORE THIS LAST YEAR. I AM A COMPLETE COMPUTER ILLITERATE. I DON'T 
KNOW ANYTHING ABOUT HOW ANY OF IT WORKS. NOT UNTIL MY DAUGHTER 
INSTALLED A COMPUTER ON MY BED THIS LAST YEAR, DID I EVER USE ONE. 
ALL OF MY EDUCATION HAS BEEN THE OLD-FASHIONED BOOKS AND HARD-COPIES 
WAY, WHEN I WAS STILL ABLE TO GET AROUND. 

WHEN I CLICKED ON THAT LINK AND GOT MY OWN YAHOO PROFILE, I COULD NOT 
GUESS THAT IT WAS SOME KIND OF A COMPUTER ERROR. I STILL DON'T 
UNDERSTAND HOW IT COULD HAPPEN. WHAT WOULD ANY OF YOU HAVE THOUGHT 
IF YOU CLICKED THAT AND YOUR OWN PERSONAL INFORMATION CAME UP ? 
BEING MORE EXPERIENCED WITH EGROUPS, WOULD YOU HAVE IMMEDIATELY KNOWN 
IT WAS SOME KIND OF A COMPUTER THING ? OR WOULD YOU HAVE BEEN A 
LITTLE CONFUSED? WELL, I WAS AND STILL AM CONFUSED AS TO HOW MY 
YAHOO PROFILE COULD COME-UP ON THAT LINK. CAN ANYONE EXPLAIN IT TO 
ME ? IF MR. CALDWELL AND MR. MEREDITH HAD NOTHING TO DO WITH IT, THEN 
I AM CERTAINLY RELIEVED AND RETRACT MY THREAT TO DO SOMETHING ABOUT 
THEIR APPARENT BUT NOT REAL HARRASSMENT. 

IF NO ONE ELSE GETS MY YAHOO PROFILE BY CLICKING ON THAT LINK, THEN I 
WILL IMMEDIATELY APOLOGIZE TO MR.S CALDWELL AND MEREDITH FOR 
THREATENING TO TAKE ACTION AGAINST THEM. 

BEST WISHES TO YOU MR. FORSTER AND ALL,

BHAKTI ANANDA GOSWAMI
