Prime example of these people are lonely self employed people with no one to answer to and no one to consult (not that they'd listen anyway).

Huh, what? Speaking for the self-employed, I dispute that! I don't mean ALL lonely self employed people with no one to answer to and no one to consult are suckers. Just that many of these suckers happen to be lonely self employed people with no one to answer to and no one to consult.

That must've been a lot of work Hal. Don't waste the data. "Somebody" has to need it.

It was LOTS of work, but it was so interesting I didn't consider it to be work. I followed a yahoo group of people that were scammed by the #1 reigning champ ebay scammer (that we know of - many will never be discovered). It was amazing enlightening. Dozens of people that had a slightly skewed view of the world, but were mostly normal. At least 1/2 of them were small biz owners or solo designers and generally NOT dumb.
