Actually, I think it would be rather wonderful if it happened, but sadly
unlikely. I'm another who joined Facebook primarily because my teenaged
nephews invited me, and not their father, and frankly I wasn't going to let
that opportunity to keep a weather eye on them pass me by. No, I did not
accept their invitations to friend "Pimp my Ride," and honestly I never use
Facebook because a- I don't understand how people can waste their time that
way and b- I can't figure out the interface.
And, for the record, I bought my techie husband an iPad for his birthday,
primarily because I knew he'd never buy one for himself -- we're proud to
have only a cheap disposable cell phone in the car for emergencies (my
students inform me that it is correctly termed a "burner"). Right now, my
husband is inseparable from the iPad -- although again, I can't figure out
the interface. (I had to take my trusty nephew with me just to buy it.)
So my point is, what's the harm? Thanks, Marjorie, for taking the
initiative, even though I am likely never to use it.

I'm not into social media beyond lists like this and the occasional
comment on a web page, but I think the possibility that the madly social
would start chatting on a M-R Facebook page is less than zero. How
about giving Marjorie a break?
Cheers,
