Besides, for the record, I suspect we are already know to some governmental electronic data bank somewhere and probably categorized as to our type of communication. If we post much we'll be categorized as safe, fringe group religious fanatic but not a threat......at least not at first.
It would be interesting, now that I think of it. Monday nights are kind of special down here. Its Bible Study Fellowship (BSF) night. Right where I'm at there are 500 men from over 170 churches, and next door, there are 500 women. Down the road a touch is another one.....in fact, there's something like 11 in the area. The largest concentration and percentage of the population in the country that reads and studies their bible daily and goes to class once a week on it.
We'll be easy to catch, harder to hold on to and what a mess this town would be to operate without us showing up for work. Doctors, attorneys, police officers, teachers, district attorneys, engineers, pilots and aircraft mechanics, nurses, bank finance people......the nuts and bolts of what makes the city run. Maybe we'll have a chance to sway some of the huge number of "wrong color (red/blue)" voters before the next election provided this area quits acting like such a strong magnet pulling the "northern neighbors" down looking for cheap houses and high wages. Every walk of life is represented....doctors and dentists just arriving after getting out of surgery, politicians coming down from the state capital and business owners shutting down and coming to class. More than anyplace I have ever lived, faith is taken really seriously down here.
Another factor in the Obama color shift (blue to red) in the election came from the huge number of universities ... youth and liberal... in the area and sanctuary city Durham.
If nothing else, would be interesting to watch the attempt to get us rounded up and identified from just our screen name. Oh, I know it can be done, but it would be a bit confusing and entertaining.
Caver,
