Down the Rabbit Hole

Since I gave up Solitaire for Lent, I have been surfing the internet as never before.

Today I discovered that according to one website, I'm a paralegal. My last day in a law office was January 31, 1992. I saw my first hypnotherapy client on May 11, 1992 and never looked back. The same website had my husband (with last name misspelled) working in Atlanta. I think he's been to Atlanta once or twice.

Are there people who get their jollies by making stuff up and posting it? And once the misinformation is "out there," how can it be corrected?

I imagine George Orwell is smackiing himself in the head and saying,"Wow, who would have ever thought that I didn't go far enough!"
