Sarah and list,

There is no problem with not signing your name I mean that if you wanted =
to remain anonymous and there could be a good reason. Maybe the person =
doesn't want others to know who is still learning or something. Who =
knows. Then you could use a fictitious name, a non de plume or what =
ever. Personally I have a little more respect for the PTG and what it =
stands for. The use of PTG as a non de plume appears as an insult to =
those that also respect what it stands for so to Pianotunaguy@aol.com =
why not use a different name just out of respect for your peers.

Regards

  Hi Avery,

  You wrote to Tunaguy:

  >Most of us do. Why don't you? What do you have to hide?=20

  For all it's worth (and I'm being a devil's advocate here -- or an =
homoichthyan advocate, as the case may be), some people do have things =
to hide, and they can be things that have nothing to do with their =
participation in this list.  For instance, talk to anyone who has come =
out of a vicious divorce (e.g. with private investigators, stalking, =
ongoing litigation, etc.), and you will understand the extremes to which =
one must sometimes go in order to protect one's privacy.  When one puts =
a name to a post, there can be consequences. =20

  There are numerous reasons why a person might want/need to be =
anonymous, having absolutely nothing to do with his or her intentions on =
this list.  Isn't this world screwed up enough that we can all kinda =
appreciate how that can be true?  I have no trouble calling this shadowy =
duo "Tunaguy" and "Topper."  But then again, I didn't invent the list =
rules.

  Peace,
  Sarah
