I looked over the questions you asked, the answers you gave. I see no =
reason for you to feel the need to not share your name. You made a =
condributions like others and shared your knowledge. If we stood face to =
face I would want to shake hands and say I'm Rich and you are? Come join =
this group. They will still welcome you. Rich

    It seems to me that either we ALL sign our names, or let it go.=20

    Most of us do. Why don't you?



  I guess it's the "most of us" part.  I lurked on this list for years, =
realizing that protocol called for me to sign my name if I posted =
anything.  Now that there are a few individuals who have broken through =
this barrier and have become accepted on the list in spite of their =
anonymity I thought I'd come out of hiding and ask a question, or even =
answer one!

  I do respect the collective knowledge, experience, and high ethos of =
this list.  And, I also respected the rule ("sign your own name") for =
years by not posting.  It wasn't me who broke through into this new =
territory. =20

  Really, to be honest, I am, myself, a bit saddened by the loss of =
accountability and candidness that the list's convention brought with =
it.  To paraphrase Groucho Marx: "I wouldn't want to be a member of a =
club that would have me."   In that light, I respect your collective =
outroar over my unwillingness to sign my name.  I would respect you less =
if you didn't. =20

  I've enjoyed reading all your posts; I've learned quite a few things =
over the years from all of you.  Sorry if I ruffled feathers.  And I'm =
sorry I've taken up bandwidth with this OT thread. =20

  I'll go back to lurking the list, along with my wife, PianoTunaGirl.  =
(She told me not to post all this BS.  As usual, she was right.)

  My best to all,
  PianoTunaGuy
