Ever bumped into someone you knew a long time ago on the internet?

I had this wild experience yesterday. I read a local political Seattle blog, Sound Politics. Yesterday, there was an interesting post about abstinence statistics, so I read the string of comments. Most of the comments were just totally obnoxious, but I came to one that was intelligent. The author of the comment called himself by the name of an old classmate from high school. Mark Congdon. I don't think I have seen him since graduation day, 1992. Crazy. So I followed his internet trail and found he has a blog himself and I was able to shoot him an email.

We talk about how the internet has made the world smaller. Yesterday, I experienced that first hand.
