I just fielded another 'Is this the same Boyd Roberts ?' email from a
total stranger. Found me off a websearch trying to re-connect with a
friend.

Strange how the worldwide information pool can sometimes act as a giant
global switcheroo to point people my way: how remote was my
involvement/knowledge, yet I get the call. Perhaps once a year.

Makes you think.
