Telling no-one nothing no-how never, nuh-uh seems a reasonable way to go, I've found.
I was joking in my earlier post (of course!), but since if I get on the subject I also find I have to thrash on a bit about alphabetic frequencies and homophonic ciphers as well, it does tend to make people's eyes glaze over a bit.
Well, a lot.
It can be difficult to talk about Zodiac at times, can't it?
Especially if you explain a things, then follow up with "Well, actually, I currently believe that no, he didn't actually exist....".
That's always the clincher. :lol:

My Wife thinks I am crazy,and is always telling me not to put my name out there worrying that he may come out looking for me, :lol: If he shows up, he won't find an unarmed teenager necking in a car,I have something for him.

My Friends and co-workers know about my Z stuff, and they sometimes make fun of it,and think I am nuts, and then all of a sudden, I catch them asking questions and coming up with theories.. :D

I'm not worried about Zodiac stalking me, but others out there who may disagree with me? That's another story.

If I am ever missing or killed, I think most of you know who to look for. ;)

Me the reactions are different, some friends or interested, others began researching the subject, (form a team zodiac and exchange ideas), as the family, my wife loves the series and genre films, then all normal and as my children, they, when they see me looking at something on the Z, are already asking me "And then father took the zodiac?!" (lol)

It's not really a hobby for me. It's an interest.

The first rule of Zodiac Club: You do not talk about Zodiac Club.

Good Rule! Every once in awhile, I forget that rule & I'm sure I shock some of my new friends. My old friends, get it & get me, my personality. But in Cali when I talk about it, I sometimes hear some strange Z like stories from my friends.

Phil, that's what we all told ourselves, at first. Mwwwwaaaahahahahahaha. :lol:

Zam - I thought for a moment you were saying that an interest in Zodiac is too crazy for people in California to understand.
I was genuinely worried there, for a second. :shock:

Zodiac is not really a "hobby" for me, so I don't talk to many people about it. But, with the job I have, I don't think people would be surprised. Not to mention, the music I listen to and the obsession I have with serial killers.
