I was part of the planning committee for my 20th high school reunion. In an effort to track down AWOL classmates I sent out a rather broad and ill-advised mass email to addresses gleaned from several directories. Anything resembling a classmate's name. Not everyone was receptive. I'll just let it unravel in reverse.
CAUTION: language!
Cheers,
Patrick.
