We are kicking off a big project at work next week. This week is all about preparing for the project, getting up to speed on the phase 1 work we did, that kind of stuff. In reading through the documentation I came across the name of a key team member, who happens to have the same name as someone I went to high school with.
It turns out that they are not one and the same (I Googled and checked). But it makes me wonder where folks have ended up. There are so many people I knew from CT out here in CA. I remember being surprised by the number at my 10 year reunion. And what about the folks I knew in CO in elementary school? The internet has made the world so small - it's easy to find folks that in years past would have been lost to you forever (LiveJournal anyone?).
I haven't had it happen where I end up working with someone I used to know. But I have a feeling that it's just a matter of time. I think it would be really cool. Of course, I suppose the coolness factor would greatly depend upon who it was.
