I would definitely say hi - I've been known to start up conversations with strangers on the streets of downtown Toronto. My brother was visiting from Missouri and we were doing the tourist thing in Toronto. I was walking along talking to this man and after we parted ways, my brother said it was amazing that you could meet someone you know in such a big city. I told him I never met the man before and my bro was astounded. But then a bus stopped in front of the hotel where we were and my neighbour's mom got off (she was on a senior's day trip) so we chatted a bit and my bro really couldn't believe that one.

So yes, I would definitely say hello.

Well I would say ' hi ' but I dont think I´m gonna see any of you folks soon............unless you have a TCS meet in Madrid or Barcelona (oooo nice !)


I´m just having vision of someone in a queue at a pet store and this really weird conversation going on

Hi arent you "what-his-gobs" from TCS ? with all in the queue looking totally freaked out
thing is its probably NOT "whats-his-gobs" anyway
even more freakish
stalkers and all

TCS people or not....
if I see someone in a tee shirt with cat pictures on it or in a store buying kitty things....
I usually say Hello.
They are always glad to talk to some who loves kittys too.

That's how I feel
Plus again, not many people around here would probably know what TCS is "Is that some sort of disease?". It's a sickness, yes


Now that I think of it, I don't think I'd recognize anyone from here, and I'm fairly certain there are no active people from my area anyway. My state yes, but not my area.

Bruce did you PM the person to find out if it was them?


I probably would say something. There are no TCS members right in my area though, so it is unlikely it would ever happen. I also haven't been keeping up with the pictures thread

I know there are at least a couple of others on here that are from Western PA, but since I have no clue what they look like I'd feel like an idiot going up to someone and saying "Excuse me, I don't REALLY know you but I sort of do I think..do you post on a board called TCS?"

They'd probably pull out their cell phone and call 911.

The only way I would say hello, is if I knew for sure that the person was from TCS. But since I don't know what most of us look like, that would hardly be unlikely. However, if a conversation about cats came up, I may mention TCS. I have done this before, but the person I spoke with wasn't on here. However, since I mentioned the site, they could be now

Of course I would say hi..I really would hope they were from TCS though or else I would feel like a wang if they were like "uh what are you talking about?"

I'd say hi!! Although the only likely person I would run into is Natalie- white cat lover - since she lives in my hometown area

I wouldn't know what they looked like though

Who could not love you?

There are a few people I could run into, especially when in Toronto an if I was 90% sure it was them, I would say hi.

I once seen someone who looked like Tracy at work and ran back to my office to see if Tracy was online before thinking about going back to say hi
lucky I checked, but she did look exactly like her!
