So the statistics presentation went fantastically. Many thanks to all who helped, namely Coldfire for saving me about 6 hours worth of pouring over my textbook. (we did chi-squares instead, and the professor was pleased.) Psych of Mass Communications project: have to do a case study on “Social psychological effects of information technology on human communication including e-mail and computer mediated interaction.” I have collectesd my four required empirical studies. I am focusing on interpersonal relationships in newsgroups, or (TADA!!!) message boards. I will need volunteers to participate in a study, which will involve completing a survey that I have yet to write, but which will probably cover how you rate on-line relationships with IRL relationships, the quality of friendships OL vs IRL, etc. Anyone interested in participating, please e-mail me. I’ll be writing the survey sometime in the next two days, and quick responces are of the essance. It will all be done via e-mail, and your anonymity will be guaranteed (translation: it ain’t going any further than myself, if I DO use quotes from your survey in my case study, you will be referred to as “respondant A” etc.) When this monster is done (I have another one that is late that I have to write on the effects of the media on adolescent’s body image. w00h00.) I’ll post it somewhere that everyone look at. Have I mentioned lately that I adore all you darlings? (if SwimmingRiddles sucks up to an entire message board, and no one is there to read it, does she make a sound?) Thanks. * * * “I go on guilt trips a couple of time a year.

Oooh. So you’re going to take _my_ personality and present it as _normal_ within the confines of your study? Wow, I could wreak havoc over the entire interpretation of a sub-culture… “And at this point in responding to messages, the average MB participant sticks a zucchini up his nose. We have no !?%#(@ idea why, but we’re sure it’s Freudian.” Anyways, pop me over a questionaire ([johncorrado@hotmail.com](mailto:johncorrado@hotmail.com)) and I promise to actually be truthful in my answers. * * * JMCJ “Y’know, I would invite y’all to go feltch a dead goat, but that would be abuse of a perfectly good dead goat and an insult to all those who engage in that practice for fun.” -weirddave, set to maximum flame ---

OK, the survey is complete. Slow day at work. So anyone who has not e-mailed me at [Bitterspce@aol.com](mailto:Bitterspce@aol.com), and who does want to participate, please do so. Those that did e-mail me, if you did NOT recieve a survey already, I did not recieve your e-mail. (Coldie: yea, he was impressed! Hot damn!) I thought about doing the project on internet addiction, and then realised that would counter-act my current state of denial and moved on to another topic. Heh.

I wanna be normal too. p.s. Although it is technically possible to “pour” over your textbook, you probably meant you were going to “pore” over it. p.p.s. This compulsion to correct minor errors is a major part of my personality. Do you still want me to participate?
