I've never had the impression that she's eccentric, slightly or otherwise. Ken Caillat said that he had to leave the room while her dogs ate but that's about it. of all the FM members she strikes me as being the most grounded (except perhaps for John)

There's no doubt a 66 year old woman can and probably does use her computer frequently. But like the rest of us, Christine probably only bothers herself with those things that matter to her. I can't imagine a fansite would be of much interest to her at this stage in her life. Maybe once in a while she'll take a peak, who knows...

But if you are reading this, Christine, YOU'RE AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Sigh, this is what I am trying to say. I think Christine, like Stevie (I know how dare I), has someone like Karen who handles all the computer stuff, tells her about sites perhaps, answers the occasional email for her, etc. I just don't picture her as the type to actually log on and surf the internet for whatever reason. This does not mean I think everyone who is 66 and older is incapable of this. I am talking about Christine specifically. I also think as she has gotten older she has become more eccentric, and no, I don't think she is anywhere as near as grounded as John. I come to this opinion, and really folks this is all speculation on all our parts, from what has been said about her in recent years. This does not mean I think she's a bad or odd person. She can afford to do what she wants and she should.

In terms of her being eccentric what has been said about her in recent years? I'm not trying to pick a fight here I just don't remember there being anthing said that made me think she is eccentric.

I got the impression (or vibe) she just wants to be left alone by what the other bandmembers have said, like she doesn't even want to talk to them anymore, not just the not wanting to tour and record with them which is perfectly understandable. Of course Ken's comments also add to this impression. She seems rather isolated to me. I probably should have said that rather than eccentric which is a loaded word. I hope that's not the case. Perhaps she's a social butterfly, but doesn't want to have anything to do with the Rumours people anymore.

Aha! You're so creative, Christine. Trying to post under the name "Erin". We know it's you, stop being so silly!
