There's a fellow here at work who uses people's names every time he speaks to them. If he sees me in the cafeteria in the morning, and in the hall 45 minutes later, it's "Hello Jane" every time. If we talk for five minutes, he uses my name multiple times in the conversation. He must have taken one of those self-improvement courses that tell you that people will remember and like you more if you always use their name.

it always made me think of the video in "Farenheit 451", the one that kept talkign to Linda becauseit was "her" day to be part of hte soaps... meon the other hand, i always avoid usingpeople's names for some reason. i think it comes form nver knowign what to call people's parents...
