I'm guessing that if Facebook can deliver a blast from the past its equally able to extract some skeletons dragging and kicking from the closet. Not that I have anything to hide, but be careful because as we get older and the CRS syndrome sets in our recollection of events can become like our eye sight blurred, and suddenly the stories that we told our kids of how cool and heroic we were growing up are shot out from underneath us and leave us shivering naked and with nowhere to run!!. Hmmm I may remain Faceless for the moment.
