Hello rdgrad15: Isn't it sad that this is what our world has come to??? No, you're not being too paranoid. One must be extremely cautious nowadays, in the Skeezyks' opinion. Every day there are more-&-more stories in the newspapers & on TV about people who are being accused of some heinous crime. Sometimes the incidents supposedly occurred decades ago. There's absolutely no way to defend oneself against such accusations. And once the accusation has been made, the accused is automatically presumed guilty... period... no reprieve... The state I live in seems to be particularly rife with this sort of things nowadays. I wouldn't want to be within throwing distance of any person who is considered to be vulnerable. It's unfortunate. But that's the reality today...
