			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>So I was at work about 9am the other morning and the work phone rings. I can tell from the ring tone that it&#8217;s an external call. I pick up and some guy says &#8220;Hey, my name is  &lt;something something&gt;&#8221; (I didn&#8217;t catch his name) &#8220;I read your article about <a title="roof hoses" href="http://athoughtadrift.com/gemmell/replacing-306-cabriolet-hydraulic-roof-hoses/">Peugeot 306 cabriolet hoses</a> on <a title="my site" href="http://athoughtadrift.com">athoughtadrift.com</a>. What diameter are the hoses you use in that article?&#8221;</p>
<p>More than a little taken aback I say &#8220;it&#8217;s called speed flow, and I think there is only one size&#8230;&#8230;. how the hell did you get this number?&#8221;</p>
<p><a href="http://athoughtadrift.com/gemmell/files/2007/04/howtostalk.jpg"><img src="http://athoughtadrift.com/gemmell/files/2007/04/howtostalk.jpg" alt="How to stalk Simon Gemmell?" title="howtostalk" width="691" height="632" class="alignnone size-full wp-image-451" /></a></p>
<p>&#8220;It was pretty easy&#8221; he says,  &#8220;You mention that you work with Radars on your <a title="about" href="http://athoughtadrift.com/gemmell/about/">&#8220;about&#8221; page</a>. You also mention the suburb where you work in one of your blog posts. A quick search for Radars in that suburb brings up your company name, I ring the front desk and ask for a Simon Gemmell and they put me through&#8221;.</p>
<p>Goddamn. It was <strong>THAT</strong> easy? Two little facts like that? I work with Radars and the suburb I work in? He could have emailed me, but I bet it was harder to work out what <a title="about me" href="http://athoughtadrift.com/gemmell/about">my email address was</a> than track me down and call me!</p>
<p>The guy wasn&#8217;t a psycho or anything, he seemed quite reasonable and he gave me a tip for fixing the windows if they ever break, but it certainly was a shock. I suppose somebody who finds my wallet on the street will probably have more information on me, but it&#8217;s just the <em>ease</em> of tracking me down that scares me. I will be careful about what I post  (and have in fact edited some details in previous posts).</p>
