Dan...why do you write "pardon the expression". Is that not
correct to
write "me too" ?
In internet culture, "me too" has come to be a somewhat notorious phrase associated with AOL users and other "internet newbies". It comes from AOL message boards (and possibly Prodigy or other message boards before that) where often when someone would post something about how they liked a movie or song or something, there'd be 10 replies that basically just said "me too". Sometimes in more words ("I also like that!" or something), but the effect was the same, so these became known as "me too" posts.
Prodigy, definitely. I first began living on the computer cuz of that during 1992.
It was as bad as AOL is now. Then again, I was 8 then, so I was a bit of a brat myself.:-)

We want "Me Too" messages during this process of discussion as we want decisions to reflect what everyone wants and that is how you communicate agreement.

Good point. I stand corrected, and withdraw the "me too" joke.
