It was a split from the way we originally were, which was a one at a time deal? As far as I know, only Tanz knew about the others as far as Front-line was concerned, and she was around earlier than when Anja took over. Some of the people who were deeper, and who didn't initially surface after we pried Anja off the front, knew about one another and even knew about the front, somewhat...
Splitting was just the best way to describe it at the time... I guess it was more of a breaking off, bringing walls down.... we didn't know about one another, but we all existed in a duplicate of the same basic space?
We did sort of hit or miss get communication going at the beginning after Anja. It was sort of during/after Anja's breakdown (she broke up with her boyfriend and had a serious mental breakdown around the same time) that we indirectly met another multiple and started to really do research. Found a lot of the links that are there on the bio page for the comm and kinda... bounced off from there.
The idea of multiplicity was the best (and some think the worst) thing to get into all our minds. It gave us a place to start a LOT of work from... and start to get organized from, but at some point the front-line had better results with figuring us out independent of other people/groups successes and experiences.
Right now it's really a collaborative effort. We were just really screwed on the organization and the cooperation aspect of it.
Anj is... really reclusive anymore. She'll come around front-line from time to time and generally is OK with stuff, but she's still not the happy, bubbly person that she used to be. Seriously, we miss her the way she used to be. She was good people before.
Thanks for asking. Talking about it helps to keep it straight in the minds of those of us who DON'T have excellent recall.
