No, you don't have to change your post(s). :) What I was trying to say is that a character should be able to say, "Yeah, I saw him in a class and I think he's in the medical field." or "Oh, she's hot.... but we never got introduced."<br/><br/>If someone wants a character to know a little more, it's not beyond the realms of possibility that they may of said "Hi" over a coffee pot and exchanged chit-chat. A point was made that not everyone will know every last person, and I will conceed that point, but by and large, by the time they were ready to board the ship at Earth, knowing OF someone shouldn't be a stretch. "knowing" someone is a little different matter. Just saying that the final selections would not of been made 15 minutes before boarding, but probably at least several weeks before.<br/><br/>I had 412 students in my graduating class in High School. I didn't know everyone, but I could point to at least 2/3rd of them and say, "That's Mary lou... that's Craig Hastings... "That's Ashley and she makes noises like a chipmunk when she's excited..." Admittedly, there were not years to associate, but there were  at least a few months of time to know most of the 25 on the surface now.<br/><br/>It's up to Chrystal, just tossing some thoughts out there. It's not inappropriate to say, "No, I don't know the hunky guy over there." or "Haven't really met him." it just shouldn't be a "I don't know anyone at all."
