    I've been reading this list and the messages for a couple weeks now and 
I've finally had the motivation to write about my existence on this list.  
Jocelyn probably inspired me to write because I too am a teenager, but 
listening to 30-year-olds blabber on about Star Wars and thinking on how I 
could enter the conversations they all were having gave me a feeling of "why 
bother?"  I'm a 16 year-old.  I like Reading, writing, the band R.E.M., and 
useless conversations with people I don't know.  Ok, I lied on the last 
part.  I've read all of Salinger's major published works but I find, at 
times, I need to re-read them.  Franny and Zooey changed my life.  I can 
hold an intelligent conversation, or so I beLIEve.  I won't join in any of 
the current topics going on right now in this list but I'll maybe join in 
later on any new topics I feel I can hold my ground on.


                     -Carl
