20 | Write an email response to a someone who asked you the following: Do you feel that gender discrimination is still an issue in the present-day United States? | To whom it may concern- I definitely believe that gender discrimination exists in society today. It is everywhere from school, to a child's playhouse, to even the workplace. I'm pretty sure that there is always going to be at least a little bit of gender discrimination in this world. It seems as though it has been inco... | |
20 | Write an approximately 500 word essay to the following prompt: Recently, school officials prevented a school shooting because one of the shooters posted a myspace bulletin. Do you think this was an invasion of privacy? | Looking on someone’s privacy within a public school system should be something that is not looked negatively upon if students’ lives are at danger. The fact that school officials prevented a school shooting due to the discovery of a myspace bulletin fills me with happiness. I have talked with public school teachers abo... | |
20 | Write an approximately 500 word essay to the following prompt: Do you feel that gender discrimination is still an issue in the present-day United States? | During the summers of 2005 and 2006, I worked for a real estate company named Re/Max American Dream. A description of my job consisted of answering telephone calls and setting up appointments for real estate agents to show homes on the market. Another title for this “Desk Management” job, as I liked to call it, would b... | |
20 | Write an approximately 500 word essay to the following prompt: Do you feel the Catholic Church needs to change its ways to adapt to life in the 21st Century? | The opinion of people who want the Catholic Church to change according to life in the twenty first century is absolute absurdity. The Catholic Church has always been a target for criticism ever since Martin Luther, or even before him. The media currently loves to focus their attention on the Catholic Church, and all of... | |
20 | Write an email response to a someone who asked you the following: Recently, school officials prevented a school shooting because one of the shooters posted a myspace bulletin. Do you think this was an invasion of privacy? | To whom it may concern: I feel as though the school officials were not invading privacy at all. The entire point of a myspace bulletin is for people- the public- to see. Why anyone would post something as horrible as a potential school shooting on myspace is beyond me, and even more so if the person does not expect to ... | |
20 | Write an email response to a someone who asked you the following: While some states have legalized gay marriage, others are still opposed to it. Do you think either side is right or wrong? | To whom it may concern- I believe that gay "marriages" should not exist at all in the U.S. (or anywhere in general). With the occasional events where I am grossed out, I have no problem with gay men or women. I am a Roman Catholic, so it is technically against my religion to allow gay marriages. A marriage was created ... | |
20 | Write an email response to a someone who asked you the following: Do you feel the Catholic Church needs to change its ways to adapt to life in the 21st Century? | To whom it may concern: I think that the Catholic Church does not need to change its ways to adapt with the 21st century. What is the point in changing a religion to suit one's personal wants? I don't think that there is any logic in that. Everyone within the church most likely does not believe EVERYTHING that the Chur... | |
20 | Write an email response to a someone who asked you the following: The city of Denver has decided to legalize small amounts of marijuana for persons over 21. How do you feel about this? | I think that marijuana should be legalized not only in Denver but in all of the United States. Most people who would want marijuana to be legalized are "pot heads," but I can honestly say that I have never smoked pot. Almost anyone who has smoked pot before would not be against its legalization. To state the opposite, ... | |
16 | Write an email response to a someone who asked you the following: The city of Denver has decided to legalize small amounts of marijuana for persons over 21. How do you feel about this? | I feel that the legalization of marijuana is a good idea for many reasons. First, as opposed to alcohol, marijuana has no negative side effects. Second, there are no proven health risks to marijuana. Alcohol, on the other hand, has tons of negative side effects, both long-term and immediate. Third, if marijuana were le... | |
16 | Write an email response to a someone who asked you the following: While some states have legalized gay marriage, others are still opposed to it. Do you think either side is right or wrong? | I think gay marriage should be legalized in all states. Some argue that gay marriage undermines the sacredness of marriage in general. However, I believe that two people, regardless of gender, can faithfully devote themselves to each other if they truly love one another. I do not think the government has any authority ... | |
16 | Write an email response to a someone who asked you the following: Recently, school officials prevented a school shooting because one of the shooters posted a myspace bulletin. Do you think this was an invasion of privacy? | If one school shooting was prevented by delving a little into someone's myspace, that is enough justification for the action. I do not think reading a post that a person intentionally put up on the internet is an invasion of that person's privacy by any means. However, if someone uses illegitimate means to collect info... | |
16 | Write an approximately 500 word essay to the following prompt: Do you feel the Catholic Church needs to change its ways to adapt to life in the 21st Century? | The Catholic Church should adapt to life in the 21st Century with some very important and worthwhile changes. While it is hard to make changes to traditions that seem as permanent as Catholicism itself, there would be many advantages to adopting certain new practices. For example, with regards to pedophilia amongst pri... | |
16 | Write an email response to a someone who asked you the following: The controversial war in Iraq has made news headlines almost every day since it began. How do you feel about the war? | While I initially supported the war in Iraq, I think it may be time to leave. Regardless of why we entered Iraq in the first place, it seems that the progress we are making over there has dropped to a dead standstill. My own brother, who joined the Marines several years ago, has already been over to Iraq twice. It is n... | |
16 | Write an approximately 500 word essay to the following prompt: While some states have legalized gay marriage, others are still opposed to it. Do you think either side is right or wrong? | Gay marriage should be legalized in every state. It is wrong to discriminate against someone for any reason, especially if that reason is not under his or her control. Many people say that homosexuals are just confused or sick with a disease and they can choose to be straight. Logically, that is completely ridiculous. ... | |
16 | Write an email response to a someone who asked you the following: Do you feel the Catholic Church needs to change its ways to adapt to life in the 21st Century? | The Catholic Church could certainly use some changes in the modern times we live in. Allowing female priests and allowing priests to marry would certainly prevent any pedophilia from occurring amongst priests. However, I think people in general give the Catholic Church a lot less credit than they really deserve. There ... | |
17 | Write an approximately 500 word essay to the following prompt: The controversial war in Iraq has made news headlines almost every day since it began. How do you feel about the war? | I honestly don’t know that much about the Iraq War. I’m not aware of many of the reasons people give in support or against it, so all I can say is what I think without having many of the facts. I feel that war was basically a bad idea to begin with. Diplomacy would have been a much less damaging way to go, and would ha... | |
17 | Write an approximately 500 word essay to the following prompt: Do you feel the Catholic Church needs to change its ways to adapt to life in the 21st Century? | I think the Catholic Church came a long way during the papacy of Pope John Paul II in terms of modernizing and reaching out to people of the world today, but still has many changes to make to fully adapt to life in the 21st century. It’s very hard to balance the value of traditions such as not allowing birth control wi... | |
17 | Write an email response to a someone who asked you the following: While some states have legalized gay marriage, others are still opposed to it. Do you think either side is right or wrong? | Marriage is a legal right that everyone in the country deserves to have. If mentally challenged people with Down's syndrome and Fetal Alcohol Syndrome have the right to get married and have children, how on earth can we deny that same right to homosexual couples who are functioning members of society? People say that g... | |
17 | Write an email response to a someone who asked you the following: Do you feel the Catholic Church needs to change its ways to adapt to life in the 21st Century? | I think the Catholic Church has been in a constant process of growth ever since its conception. It's not like it has never changed - The Protestant Reformation and Vatican II are examples of two massive overhauls in Church doctrine and practice. Yet there are lots of issues today that the Church is not addressing prope... | |
17 | Write an approximately 500 word essay to the following prompt: While some states have legalized gay marriage, others are still opposed to it. Do you think either side is right or wrong? | There is no legal reason to make gay marriage impossible. Decisions about whether weddings can be performed in a church and recognized as a religious union should be left up to the leaders of specific religions, and the state should stick to determining whether a union is worthy of a legal marriage certificate. Many ga... | |
17 | Write an email response to a someone who asked you the following: Recently, school officials prevented a school shooting because one of the shooters posted a myspace bulletin. Do you think this was an invasion of privacy? | This is possibly the biggest waste of the court's time ever. I fail to see, time and time again, how a bulletin posted on a public website for tens and probably hundrends of users to see could be considered private in any way shape or form. Even just signing up for a Myspace, you are informed that your website is subje... | |
17 | Write an email response to a someone who asked you the following: The city of Denver has decided to legalize small amounts of marijuana for persons over 21. How do you feel about this? | I have a problem with the legalization of marijuana both in theory and in practicality. In theory, people argue that marijuana has similar effects to alcohol so if alcohol is legal, marijuana should be too. In reality, marijuana's effects are NOT the same as alcohol's. Marijuana is an unclassified drug: it has characte... | |
7 | Write an approximately 500 word essay to the following prompt: Recently, school officials prevented a school shooting because one of the shooters posted a myspace bulletin. Do you think this was an invasion of privacy? | Saying that students have rights that need to be protected is like saying that the sky is blue. Young people have the same rights granted under the constitution that adults (in most cases anyway; drinking, voting, and some financial concerns being different). These rights aren’t shed at the schoolhouse gate, as one Sup... | |
7 | Write an approximately 500 word essay to the following prompt: Do you feel that gender discrimination is still an issue in the present-day United States? | Of course gender discrimination is still an issue. It would be ludicrous to expect that a society born and bred on millennia of European paternalistic social modes would shed them in under a century. The problem is that examples of discrimination have become harder to recognize; it’s no longer kosher to avoid promoting... | |
7 | Write an approximately 500 word essay to the following prompt: Do you feel the Catholic Church needs to change its ways to adapt to life in the 21st Century? | As with any institution that’s been around for a millennium or so, the Catholic Church is inherently resistant to change. That’s a nicer way of saying “conservative.” Because of this, it’s acquired the outward semblance of a frat, a good ol’ boys organization. The hierarchy has the power and money to preserve itself by... | |
7 | Write an email response to a someone who asked you the following: The city of Denver has decided to legalize small amounts of marijuana for persons over 21. How do you feel about this? | Dear CMC Study, I think the primary reason that marijuana is illegal is because the government can't tax it. It's long-term effects are no worse than those of cigarettes (and some would argue markedly better), and the immediate effects it produces are similar to those of alcohol. I think that the other major reason it'... | |
7 | Write an approximately 500 word essay to the following prompt: The controversial war in Iraq has made news headlines almost every day since it began. How do you feel about the war? | How do I feel about the war? (Runs outside, yells incoherently at the top of his lungs for several minutes, comes back, sits down). Okay, better now. I’m against it. The United States went to war on false and shifting pretexts to satisfy the twisted policy notions of a foreign-relations-ignorant administration. Case th... | |
7 | Write an email response to a someone who asked you the following: Recently, school officials prevented a school shooting because one of the shooters posted a myspace bulletin. Do you think this was an invasion of privacy? | Dear CMCC Study, I'll have to try to put aside my strong distaste for myspace for the moment (it's a disgusting excuse for internet voyeurism and cheapens more legitimate forms of human interaction and communication). People need to keep in mind that myspace is an open forum. This means that anything posted on it can b... | |
7 | Write an email response to a someone who asked you the following: While some states have legalized gay marriage, others are still opposed to it. Do you think either side is right or wrong? | Dear CMCC Study- The federal debate over gay marriage is asinine. Constitutionally speaking, I believe it's a matter which should be left to the States. My feelings about President Bush cannot be described in polite terms, so I won't go there. The erroneous line of reasoning that concludes that the banning of gay marri... | |
15 | Write an approximately 500 word essay to the following prompt: While some states have legalized gay marriage, others are still opposed to it. Do you think either side is right or wrong? | Once again, we come to an issue that many people have strong feelings on. In my previous response through the email, I believe that I had a different opinion from the one that I have now. Gay marriage is an issue that should have a 100% overall agreement. I do not believe either side is wrong in their beliefs. We are i... | |
15 | Write an approximately 500 word essay to the following prompt: Do you feel that gender discrimination is still an issue in the present-day United States? | I believe that gender discrimination is still an issue in the present day United States for both men and women. I feel that women and men are equally discriminated against in the workplace. Discrimination has existed for so long in our country, I do not feel that it will be easy to rid ourselves of it. People have crea... | |
15 | Write an approximately 500 word essay to the following prompt: The controversial war in Iraq has made news headlines almost every day since it began. How do you feel about the war? | The war in Iraq has been a major issue since the time I was in the 8th grade, after the collapse and attack on the World Trade Center. When I first heard about the incident, I didn’t know that it was a terror attack nor did I know what the World Trade Center was. All I knew was that something happened in the city, and ... | |
15 | Write an email response to a someone who asked you the following: The city of Denver has decided to legalize small amounts of marijuana for persons over 21. How do you feel about this? | I think that alcohol has a more potent effect than marijuana. Marijuana seems to relax individuals. It seems normal for guys to drive when they are high, but then they would never drive when they are drunk. Weed seems easier to obtain then alcohol, which is strange because the easier one to get is illegal. I think any ... | |
15 | Write an email response to a someone who asked you the following: Do you feel that gender discrimination is still an issue in the present-day United States? | I do not feel that gender discrimination is still an issue in the present day United States. This may be because I have not been out into the "real world". I held a part time job in high school for 5 years and the only time I felt singled out as a girl was when I was unable to work past 7 o'clock. There were two valid ... | |
15 | Write an approximately 500 word essay to the following prompt: The city of Denver has decided to legalize small amounts of marijuana for persons over 21. How do you feel about this? | Another controversial issue is the legalization of marijuana. Marijuana seems to entice many people when they just want to “chill out”. Marijuana has been studied for years with scientific findings that prove that marijuana does not have positive effects on individuals. I do not think that most people truly know the si... | |
15 | Write an approximately 500 word essay to the following prompt: Do you feel the Catholic Church needs to change its ways to adapt to life in the 21st Century? | As a member of the Catholic Church, I do not feel that the church needs to change its ways to adapt to life in the 21st century. I disagree with the cases of pedophilia and agree that they do need to be addressed and dealt with. I do not think that these cases could have been prevented if the church changed or adapted ... | |
10 | Write an approximately 500 word essay to the following prompt: While some states have legalized gay marriage, others are still opposed to it. Do you think either side is right or wrong? | What really is “gay marriage”? It is a socially, governmentally, and religiously recognized marriage in which two people of the same sex live together as a family. Many supportive of same-sex marriage often use the term "equal marriage" to stress that they seek equality as opposed to special rights. Opponents argue tha... | |
10 | Write an approximately 500 word essay to the following prompt: Do you feel that gender discrimination is still an issue in the present-day United States? | People who say gender discrimination isn’t alive and well in our culture are dead wrong. Have they never heard of the glass ceiling? Sadly gender discrimination cuts both ways. It’s aimed both at men and women in our day and age. I think most people also aren’t sure what gender discrimination really is. It can be somet... | |
10 | Write an approximately 500 word essay to the following prompt: The controversial war in Iraq has made news headlines almost every day since it began. How do you feel about the war? | Of course the war in Iraq has caused controversy. All war causes controversy. Most people have been connecting 9/11 to the Iraq war, and that’s just plain not true. The government itself has even said there is no connection to 9/11. Iraq did not have weapons of mass destruction. There were no mobile labs. There was no ... | |
10 | Write an email response to a someone who asked you the following: Recently, school officials prevented a school shooting because one of the shooters posted a myspace bulletin. Do you think this was an invasion of privacy? | First things first we have to make a decision. Is anything put out onto the world wide web truly private? The Internet is a public domain, no one owns it, and so how can it be private. No matter how many security protocols you have on something someone somewhere will be able to see it. Since the advent of the Internet ... | |
10 | Write an approximately 500 word essay to the following prompt: The city of Denver has decided to legalize small amounts of marijuana for persons over 21. How do you feel about this? | One of my big problems with marijuana being illegal is the complete hypocrisy of the fact that I am allowed to kill myself by smoking tobacco, drinking alcohol, or eating transfats, but I am not allowed to make the responsible, adult choice of smoking/eating/vaporizing marijuana. It is almost impossible to kill yoursel... | |
10 | Write an approximately 500 word essay to the following prompt: Recently, school officials prevented a school shooting because one of the shooters posted a myspace bulletin. Do you think this was an invasion of privacy? | Privacy rights…That is a hot button issue all right. In the information age, well, privacy is a hot commodity. Whether that is on the Internet, in your home, in everyday normal life, privacy is hard to find. Now that we have the Internet things are even worse. People place everything on the Internet. Pictures. Stories.... | |
10 | Write an email response to a someone who asked you the following: Do you feel the Catholic Church needs to change its ways to adapt to life in the 21st Century? | Oh boy do I have a lot to say about the Catholic Church. How does an institution that guides millions of people allow itself to become so stagnated? It makes no sense. The point of life is to grow and change. As society grows and changes our guiding forces must change and evolve as well. One of my main issues with the ... | |
9 | Write an approximately 500 word essay to the following prompt: Do you feel the Catholic Church needs to change its ways to adapt to life in the 21st Century? | I don’t feel that the Catholic Church needs to change if it does not want to. The beliefs within the Catholic Church are their beliefs and it is not up to anybody but themselves to decide whether to change their ways or not. Though I feel it would be nice if they were to become more open about certain issues (allowing ... | |
9 | Write an email response to a someone who asked you the following: Do you feel that gender discrimination is still an issue in the present-day United States? | Yes, I feel that gender discrimination is still an issue in the United States. While advancements have been made towards closing this gap, there still exists many places where we have not been doing too well. While people are taught in elementary school that both boys and girls are equal and we should always be respect... | |
9 | Write an approximately 500 word essay to the following prompt: The city of Denver has decided to legalize small amounts of marijuana for persons over 21. How do you feel about this? | I personally believe that the possession and use of marijuana should be legal to certain extents. I feel that age would be one limitation that they would need to place on it, just like alcohol. It would only make sense considering both tobacco and alcohol have age restrictions. Though the age would have to be debated a... | |
9 | Write an email response to a someone who asked you the following: Recently, school officials prevented a school shooting because one of the shooters posted a myspace bulletin. Do you think this was an invasion of privacy? | No, this was not an invasion of privacy. The internet is a public domain and anything that is put on the internet is accessable to many people. The fact that the message was in the form of a bulletin is also another give away that it was meant to be seen. By posting information like that in a bulletin rather than a mes... | |
9 | Write an email response to a someone who asked you the following: While some states have legalized gay marriage, others are still opposed to it. Do you think either side is right or wrong? | I think both sides are wrong. While legalizing it is what I WOULD support, I also am very supportive of separation of church and state. The government should have no say in a matter like this. Though being married does create paperwork for things such as taxes, just because the partner is someone of the same sex does n... | |
9 | Write an email response to a someone who asked you the following: The controversial war in Iraq has made news headlines almost every day since it began. How do you feel about the war? | I've been against the war from the moment we entered it. When I first heard news of an invasion of Iraq, I asked myself, "What did they have to do with 9/11? Shouldn't we have our focus on Osama Bin Laden?" I had no clue how President Bush had even come to the conclusion that Iraq had "weapons of mass destruction," but... | |
9 | Write an approximately 500 word essay to the following prompt: Do you feel that gender discrimination is still an issue in the present-day United States? | I think that gender discrimination is an ongoing issue in the United States. While it’s being shown that we are slowly improving this, there is still much room in which we can eliminate discrimination. Statistics even today show that women make lower wages than men do in many companies. Some places this difference is r... | |
14 | Write an approximately 500 word essay to the following prompt: Recently, school officials prevented a school shooting because one of the shooters posted a myspace bulletin. Do you think this was an invasion of privacy? | Privacy rights are a big issue in our nation today. Honestly, I am not sure why this is. I think it is because I am one of the norm. I am a white, catholic, American girl with absolutely nothing to hide. I do not believe that the government would ever want to invade my privacy. However, if they did, I trust my governme... | |
14 | Write an approximately 500 word essay to the following prompt: The controversial war in Iraq has made news headlines almost every day since it began. How do you feel about the war? | In the terrorist attack of 2001, I lost many close friends and relatives. I live right outside the city so I was affected greatly. When this first happened I was in eighth grade and even at that age, I developed a prejudice against middle eastern people. I could not stand the sight of them. I got chills when I watched ... | |

14 | Write an approximately 500 word essay to the following prompt: The city of Denver has decided to legalize small amounts of marijuana for persons over 21. How do you feel about this? | The city of Denver has decided to make small amounts of marijuana legal. I do not think that this is a good idea at all. Who is to say what amount is a small amount? What is a large amount? There is no way that people can agree on how much is a small amount. If you are going to legalize the drug then legalize the drug ... | |
14 | Write an email response to a someone who asked you the following: The controversial war in Iraq has made news headlines almost every day since it began. How do you feel about the war? | I think that the war has definitly gone on on long enough. Becuase I was greatly affected by 9/11 I can see why Bush sprung into action so quickly. At that time when everyone was emotional, I would have done the same thing. There was no other option. We could just not retaliate. However, we have been over there for yea... | |

14 | Write an approximately 500 word essay to the following prompt: Do you feel that gender discrimination is still an issue in the present-day United States? | Unfortunately, gender discrimination is still a problem in our society today. Although it is much more subtle than it ever was it still does exist. I believe that gender discrimination is most prominent in the business world. Our society is trained to automatically think that the owner of a business or company is a man... | |
6 | Write an email response to a someone who asked you the following: Do you feel the Catholic Church needs to change its ways to adapt to life in the 21st Century? | I believe the catholic church has lost there way, No longer is church about serving the poor and helping those who need spiritual guidance, its basically a way for people to point out whose wrong and whose right. Now granted this is the way I see it as the Catholic Church as the whole but upon interacting with a few Je... | |
6 | Write an approximately 500 word essay to the following prompt: Recently, school officials prevented a school shooting because one of the shooters posted a myspace bulletin. Do you think this was an invasion of privacy? | What does invading privacy even mean? Does it mean that school officials can look at your myspace page and they can ask you questions about it in school? Or is it just as simple as sitting in front of your computer screen reading a stranger’s face book wall? I think before one can judge when the school officials can in... | |
6 | Write an approximately 500 word essay to the following prompt: Do you feel that gender discrimination is still an issue in the present-day United States? | I believe that gender discrimination still exists towards men in that they are still looked down upon when they consider low key roles like being a stay at home dad or a nurse. For example in the movie Meet the Parents on the character’s Gaylord Fauker was constantly made fun of by her fiancée’s father because he was a... | |
6 | Write an email response to a someone who asked you the following: The controversial war in Iraq has made news headlines almost every day since it began. How do you feel about the war? | Honestly like many Americans on september 11th I was for the war in Iraq. I wanted the U.S. to go there with our big guns and show them who they messed with. But now I'm not as sure and to be honest I'm not actually sure about the details of the war. The main thing is that now I believe that the war in Iraq is wrong. I... | |
6 | Write an email response to a someone who asked you the following: The city of Denver has decided to legalize small amounts of marijuana for persons over 21. How do you feel about this? | My best friend went to college this past year and she began smoking marijuana. And so to scare her I wanted to find out if there was any particular cancer or disease that you can get from smoking marijuana and I found nothing. Marijuana is a product of the earth, it doesn't hurt the body you can't get lung cancer from ... | |
6 | Write an approximately 500 word essay to the following prompt: While some states have legalized gay marriage, others are still opposed to it. Do you think either side is right or wrong? | I think that although either side is entitled to their opinion the overall idea is that there are American citizens who chose to love people in a nontraditional way, and are chastised for it. For people, like me who are for gay marriage I believe that homosexuals should be offered the same rights as heterosexuals becau... | |
6 | Write an email response to a someone who asked you the following: While some states have legalized gay marriage, others are still opposed to it. Do you think either side is right or wrong? | I believe that every side is entitled to there owm opinoin on gay marraige but that doesn't mean that they should limit the other side either. If you don't like gay marriage thats fine but that doesn't mean that there are people out there who aren't gay. Personally I believe that everyone should mind there own business... | |
8 | Write an approximately 500 word essay to the following prompt: Recently, school officials prevented a school shooting because one of the shooters posted a myspace bulletin. Do you think this was an invasion of privacy? | I think that is it good that school officials were able to prevent a school shooting, regardless of how they came about this information. Which issue is more important: the death of a student, or the fact that a student’s privacy might have been violated? In my opinion, there is a clear cut answer: the student’s life i... | |
8 | Write an approximately 500 word essay to the following prompt: Do you feel the Catholic Church needs to change its ways to adapt to life in the 21st Century? | I do feel that in some ways, the Catholic Church needs to change in order to adapt to life in the 21st century. I do, however, completely understand the reasoning that some people would have who would be opposed to this change. But for those who would say something along the lines of the following, I disagree: “The Cat... | |
8 | Write an approximately 500 word essay to the following prompt: The city of Denver has decided to legalize small amounts of marijuana for persons over 21. How do you feel about this? | Recently, the city of Denver, Colorado has decided to make it legal for people over 21 to purchase small amounts of marijuana. Personally, I do not feel that this is a good idea. I do not have very strong reasons to back up this view, but basically I feel that the government should not be making it easier for its citiz... | |
8 | Write an email response to a someone who asked you the following: Recently, school officials prevented a school shooting because one of the shooters posted a myspace bulletin. Do you think this was an invasion of privacy? | I think that whenever you post anything on the internet, you have to be aware that what you are posting can be read by pretty much anyone.
