spiffy move for which you are accountable.
Gary, I agree, but exactly who is accountable? SI is an anonymous place as it is (can you say for sure that my name is Richard L. Williams?), but with the advent of these "trial memberships," anybody can say anything and escape resonsibulity, ala Yahoo!, and get away with it.
I wouldn't be so sure of that. How do you think they catch all those perverted pedophile bozos and dumb high school teenagers who e-mail the White House with threats? Every computer leaves a trail . . . I'd bet Jill (the Webmistress), or one of her cronies could help legal officials track down HK BONER if they really wanted to pursue it, starting with the origin from where the post came from. (server address, time logs, etc.) I'm not saying it would be easy, but possible? Yes!
Remember, BIG BROTHER IS WATCHING! (Just like Santa Clause!!)
