    I get mistaken for other people every month. I had one woman run up and hug me, calling me Denise. Maybe you are one of those folks, Dansk, a friendly everyman that people think they know. Smiling and waving back is good.

    Yeah, I get that a lot. "HEEYYYYY! JEFF! How's it going?" "WTF??? Uh, I'm not Jeff". "Are you sure you're not Jeff, you look just like him!"

    i have smiled and waved at people who just look happy and are pleasant. It has something to do with my new feeling/attitude

    " helllo human race, so nice to see/meet u, i want to come and play too"

    Maybe your new attitude is just catching. people just respond to smiling people.

    LOL... that used to happen to me when I was a teen. There was some other guy who apparently looked just like me. He also liked to piss off a lot of people who then tried to start fights with me.

    *LOL* xjw..people come up to me but only cuz they wanna find out whether or not I'm wearing a wig or something...*LOL* and for all the freaks that start I smile back and say hello...You would be suprised sometimes when you have a bunch of teenagers on an elevator and they haven't the nerve to say hello, but are more than happy to talk about me in Spanish...*LOL* I usually end up interrupting and saying Hi! My name's Travis and I teach computer science"...*LOL* They either shut up or we talk about school...bang! I just expanded my realm of acquaintences by 10 or so...w00t!.

    Yo Mav...dude that happens to me on campus too...I've had so many classes in almost 7 years of teaching and have interacted w/so many I just have to play it off cool..."Oh hey! How ya doin?"....*one hopes they have thier school id showing*..um "Ya Mary...um Jackson..."...*thinks back to student history*..."um how's the kids?"....*LOL*
