Re: [lace-chat] Re: dangers of giving address
Why are you surprised? The archives at mail-archive.com are public. It was the easiest way to get free archives, since so many Arachnes were opposed to moving to yahoo groups and, as moderator, not list owner, I don't have admin rights to the majordomo server and can't install something like MonArch.

Re: [lace-chat] Re: dangers of giving address
that would be nice. our unemployment offices have the same system, and it is the only way to look into jobs through them. you fill out an application, put your resume on line, and then they give you a list of job types you qualify for. from there you get a list of jobs available that you might want to apply for. it would work great every where not associated with the unemployment office, but you have so many different websites and no official website, that they are not updated and show no positions available any where. even if you search the job bank without using your own information, they show no jobs available in every job catagory. i've found about 3 of these sights. it would be easy and free for people looking for employers instead of paying to put an add in the news papers to put an add on one of those sights. --- [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: In a message dated 17/07/2005 02:31:06 GMT Daylight Time, [EMAIL PROTECTED] writes: that is a good idea. i have sent a few resume's and applications online, but i never got a call for the job until i brought in an hand written application and a printed out resume straight to the company. i did find a house online, which i thought was great because i had to relocate for school. it worked out nice enough, but the neighbors were not so good. they wouldn't have been any better if i had shown up in person and found a different house, so i can't blame any internet misconfusion with that.

i'm not paranoid about it. there are about 3000 or more people with my exact name all over the united states. i also did what another arachne member did and put my last name in where it kept printing up in my email. i had no idea my last name came up everytime i sent an email. but it would not be very responsible to encourage someone to put their first and last name in any email. in the u.s. we hear of children getting raped and people getting murdered all the time from people they met on the internet. i'm not trying to be gory, but i'm originally from detroit, michigan, u.s.a. which at one time was the murder capital of the u.s.a., so i think it was correct to keep citizens there warned and cautious, but not paranoid. even the best police officers in detroit would tell you it is not any better to hide in your house and be paranoid. unfortunately we had one incident when i was in 6th grade where our paperboy came up missing. i am not liing, and you could look this up in the detroit news newspaper archives in either 1981 or 1982 about the incident or the detroit news television news casts archives. the paper boy's name was Kurt Cizio, he was a student at saint cundagunda catholic school that was about 6 to 7 blocks from where i lived. his body was found 2 houses down from my grandmother's house and one city block and 2 houses down from where i lived inside one of the neighbor's house. the man had strangeled the kid, raped his body, bathed him, wrapped his body in a sheet, and put his body in the wall of his attic. the whole time the police were searching for this boy by those houses they heard him hammering away upstairs in his attic trying to close the wall in to hide the body. the police brought dogs in and and they smelled out the boys footprints leading right to the man's front door where he dropped his newspaper off and into the man's house from the backdoor where he dragged the strangled boy in. this wasn't caused from the internet, but things like this happended all the time. detroit city had about 1 million people in it at the time, and there was always something terrible going on. we lived 4 or 5 blocks from where the prostitutes used to sell themselves at on michigan avenue. our neighborhood was close to the railroad tracks and darker lit with street lights than other streets, so the hookers would park in the cars with their johns, do their job, and get out of the car and walk back to michigan avenue for another one. one day my brother was standing in the front of my mother's house and a cop walked up out of no where and asked to borrow his bicycle. my brother agreed, and watched him ride by a parked van where he peeked into the window, then radioed his partner and made an arrest right there. apparently a hooker had brought her john there and was caught. both people were arrested. i think most of this list is from small towns because you wouldn't ask for information like full names of names of cities in new york city, or chicago and not get an argument about how unsafe it could be. not that anyone has asked for anyones last name because they haven't. i'm not trying to scare anyone, but why leave opportunity for anything when you can be safe with knowing already what is already known and no more. the u.s.a. is not a safe place to live and even in small towns there are horrible crimes. england must be a very safe place to live because everyone seems to sherk and overlook the possibilities for a horrible crime to happen. that says a lot of good things about it, but the u.s.a is not a good place to live and if you looked closer at the crime rate in each city, you would see it is not a good place to take any chance with your safety. not trying to scare anyone, and i know this is going to tick a lot of people off, but you should talk to your local police stations and then type the reaction and comments the police had to the suggestion to give any information to anyone on the internet. --- Helene Gannac [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Susan wrote: i would especially be scared after the bombings both in the u.s.a. and london to put a name anywhere. the way things are going we are going to all be walking around with gas masks in our pocket books next to pills that clean dirty water, foldable axes to cut out debree of fallen building matter, and a cyanide pill to kill ourselves with if we are taken captive . Dear Susan, please relax, I don't think anyone in the lacemaking world has got time to go and plant bombs around, we are too busy making lace :-). YOu don't have to give your full name on the net anyway. I often wonder why people put their full name as their email address, unless they are trading, and want people to know who they are.
