Social Networking Sites Are Starting To Scare Me
#1

This morning, LinkedIn suggested a potential contact for me that threw me for a loop -- someone I knew from Steve Jackson Games 15 years or so ago.
What's scary about that? 
Neither of us has anything about SJG in our profiles.  We're in two completely different fields.  We have (had) no connections in common.  She's in Texas, I'm in NJ.  I haven't talked to/emailed her in years.  Her entry is under her married name, and I knew her only by her maiden name.
How the hell did LinkedIn figure out to suggest her to me?
