    So I heard back from that requester that it turns out I know. I'm still crazy shocked by this. I removed some information for obvious reasons. I left his name because it his requester name.

    HIT Title: Answer a survey about a news article related to the military. Bonus payment!
    HIT ID: 34F34TZU7W5NL9AKTPLOYPZSKPR2JC

    Vito! I don't know if you remember, but I'm a fellow <hometown> graduate (I was 2005), but I know some of the guys I think you graduated with <names>. Crazy small world we live in, right? Hope you are doing well and I think it's really cool that I know of a person using the platform for research. Hope I submitted a good response.
    Take care!

    --------------------------------- Vito D'Orazio
    Small world indeed! Thanks for your email and for participating. I've used Mechanical Turk a decent amount, it really is a great platform for research. Hope the pay was adequate for the amount of time it took. We're pretty liberal with our 25 cent bonus too.

    --------------------------------- me
    The task was a bit long, but the pay seemed adequate. Hope to see more of them in the future.
    Were you a <hometown elementary school> grad? I think we might have been in the same Challenger class when I was in 4th and you were in 5th, with Mrs <teacher>.
    Either way, yeah, small world. Enjoy your 4th!

    --------------------------------- Vito D'Orazio
    I was, and I was in Challenger! I remember losing to <people I don't know> in Math Olympiads. Happy 4th!

    That sucks. I work for a giant corporation. I had the option of taking today and tomorrow off with pay or working and getting double the hourly rate. Suffice to say... I'm working. :emoji_money_mouth:
