    Yes I have. It wasn't accidental because it was my daughter. Jubilations, I was so happy at her story. She's stopped posting now and moved on with her life.

    There are several members I likely know, or have at least (nearly) met:

    oppostate (who I'll see at the next CA...I just won't know it)

    zoiks (common friends at least)

    CuriousButterfly

    coffee_black (common acquaintances)

    Of course, we can't confirm our identities to each other for fear of being cut off from our families for the rest of our lives.

    Heven't yet, but it would be totally awesome! I got excited once when minimus mentioned a circuit overseer I knew, we both had the opinion the guy was a real jerk. I would love to recognize a friend or cousin, especially, but alas, no. I'm amazed at knowing how many of us are out there, all over the world, posting and talking about the same things. I love the internet for making that possible.

    I have too. Got reunited with some folks from my local hall that of course I didn't realize were out. We are in constant contact now.

    yes, cool experience. I noticed she was from my home state. I messaged her. Turns out we went to the same high school and had a class together. She signed my yearbook! Now we are FB friends. I visited her last summer when I went home for a visit. Her name here is Emma.

    Yes I've figured out three different people. One I have contacted after 40 years
