If that happened, said guy from then would likely respond differently depending on how far back you go. If it was, say, 10 years ago I would ask further questions because at that time I was watching Generation 3, unsurprised by the news. If it was more like, a year before I started, I would heavily research the topic and figure out what's going on to see if it's right for me, even if I wasn't against it. If it was about 5 years ago I'd be pretty surprised but then move on. But no matter what, my gut reaction would be "Get the fuck outta here, psychopath! How the hell did you reach me!?
