Silver…now you see MY problem. I have to do that, PLUS I’ve been to 10 Dopefests!!! Hence why I have to think about this! ---

Again, don’t stress about remembering everybody - and I’m not publishing how who connects with whom, ect. This is fun, not a test! And so far I’m winning (or losing), so neener neener everybody. 😛 ---

Falc, I decided to only name people I chat with on a regular basis. So far I’m up to 40 people, but I **know** I’m missing a whole bunch. So I’m sitting in chat, listing people as they come in. 🙂 ---

It _is_ hard, and I don’t even go to chat! And I had a computer crash not to long ago, and lost tons of e-mails, so I had nothing to jog my memory. ☹ What I’m really looking for is somebody who had sex with Ed Zotti, but so far no luck…pity, it would have raised Cecil’s rating. We can’t have Kevin Bacon beating him, now can we? ---

Well, I know someone who knows someone who had sex with Ed Zotti. Is that good enough? ---

> [@](#): > > \*Originally posted by InternetLegend \* > \*\*Oh no! I’ve gone into chat three or four times now \*\* I FORGOT ABOUT CHAT! Tater, you should have insane/iampunha and insane/iampunha2 from me. DO you REALLY want me to go through the Wally thread and look for everyone I’ve talked to in chat? This could take one fucking hell of a long time. I have 57 dopers on my buddy list and I’ve talked to all but like 5 of them. And three of those five are dupes. ---

Porcupine, thanks! These are people who have met F2F, right? Esp. the one that has slept with Ed? That would make it 2.75 to Cecil! Hoo! Ahh! Oh, and for those who have asked, I’ve decided that you can only count me if you’ve e-mailed me & I’ve answered & you answered back. Right now, I have about 4 folders going on, just of Doper stuff for this project! Eek! I think that it’s cheating to count me unless we’ve had some sort of relationship, however brief. 😃 Iampunha, how does **Iampunha** feel about that? Whatever you think, babe. 😃 ---

**tater** , actually, my sister is friends with Ed’s wife; they used to work together. So it’s not technically a SDMB connection. ---

Not a chatter, and don’t have much time for IMing or e-mail, but at least I’ve been to a couple of dope-fests, so my list isn’t totally pathetic. Looking forward to the…ahem…climax of it all. ---

Sent again, dear. This better be good! 😉 I will say it’s a bit of a trip to contemplate the list I assembled; to realize that all these cartoon-sounding names are real people with whom I’ve had discourse. Rock on… ---

I don’t know why all you people are complaining that you have long lists and “no life.” I will personally vouch for the fact that I have no life WHATSOEVER and there are still only three people on my list! I’ve really gotta start reaching out and touching some of you people. _ **Sappy sentimentalism alert** _ I don’t post much around here, but I have been lurking quite vigorously for 6-8 months, I guess. I just want all you guys & gals to know that I think of you all quite fondly (even the ones on whom I have entirely [TMI](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?threadid=44749).) A more fun, erudite, and imaginative group I could not have dreamed up. Kudos to you, tater, for going out of your way to tie everyone even closer together like this. And my personal warmest holiday greetings to all Dopers throughout the world this season. - love, Dave P.S. Somebody give me a heads up the next time a HouDope rolls around! ---

You know, now that I think of it, my project _does_\* hold the promise of relieving human suffering. Well…at least one person’s suffing. I ain’t saying it’s my suffering that will be relieved, but I ain’t saying it ain’t either. > [@](#): > > Doesn’t have to be your nature to you to stage an experiment. The above was a clue, unwittingly supplied by lurkernomore. Wow! How did lurker know to write that? **Dave** , sniff, that is so nice of you to say…if I should come to a terrible end because of this project, I want that as my epitah. And no need to get connection anxiety here…no number to big or too small! ---
