Where did you see this?
Probably they are just looking for e-mail addresses to send out invites to visit the FDR website.

| Nah, they're talkin about putting something on the web site to get people to give their email addresses. This is different than the sending out invites thing. Something sinister is afoot.  |

| No, they're just discussing how to entice people to give away their emails. The original post has a link to the FDR thread. |

I looked at the thread. Seems harmless to me. Anyone can just give a secondary e-mail address other than their main one.
It is perhaps curious that Greg doesn't state the reason why they want e-mail addresses, though I would guess they would say that its to "spread the conversation".

| I find it bizarre that Stef went so far with Greg. Greg has no human skills and lots of issues.

agreed. if Greg is one of the doctors that Stef talks about in #926, then I'd rather be left untreated |

| but what do you mean by 'so far'? in what sense has he gone so far with Greg? you mean, by making him his deputy? |

| I think Stefan values his undying and unquestioning loyalty. It's all ego-game playing. |

Putting trust in him to be a spokesperson or someone put forward as knowledgable and a good practiser. |

| I find Greg really obnoxious and sycophantic. On the other hand, he's really young and immature and we've all been there and been that stupid. Looking at it from that perspective, Stef is perhaps being a father figure to him and helping him to grow and mature. There's nothing wrong with that, and it may also be satisfying a need Stef has for fathering. Or not. But that is the perspective I have that helps me to just let it be. It's all their stuff anyway and none of my business, so they are free to do and be however they want as far as I am concerned. And I will choose the same freedom for myself. - NonE P.S. | Quote: | | But I was so much older then, I'm younger than that now. - Bob Dylan |

they're the same age! (could be 1 or 2 years difference) Greg I thought was Stef's 'guinnea pig': if Stef could save Greg and make him happy and what not, then his method works, but no signs of that yet. Instead he has turned him and the rest into little know-it-all & psychologizing monsters
