The
following message was sent to Gloria, who lives in the San Diego area, after
someone saw her photographs posted on myspace.com. I think this letter indisputably
clears up the question: Is there such a thing as love at first sight? And can
it exist via the Internet? Please dispense your indefatigable yearnings to
inbox@rochester-citynews.com.
