James, let me give you a far-out ferinstance, and see if you still agree.

Are you listed in the phone book? (If not, why not? Hiding in a cave?) But let's assume, like most people it is.

You have a co-worker that doesn't like you. Maybe you got his promotion.

Now, your co-worker doesn't know where you live, but they know your name, and you are listed in the phone book. They look you up, and note your address.

Now, there's this motorcycle gang that likes to ride near your office, and every now and then, there they are just as you are leaving work. One day you cut them off, and there was an unpleasant incident. Your co-worker saw it.

Remembering this, your co-worker waits on the street after work, flags-down the motorcycle gang, and gives them your name and phone number, and explans that this was the guy that cut them off the other day.

Do you have any gripe against your co-worker? After all, you put your name in the book. You wanted to be found, right?

judyblueeyes was either suspended or terminated for calling people on SI "bitch", "slut" and accusing their wives of f***ing dogs on the corner for quarters, only without the asterisks. Oh, yeah, she asked someone to f*** her only without the asterisks. And she demanded that someone else commit suicide. In other words, not a very nice person.

I gave my name to the Wall Street Journal, but I didn't really expect for it to be posted all over SI. It's ok, I can live with it, but what elmatador did was make sure that judyblueeyes saw it, in case she missed it. Which meant that he had to go waaaaaay back to the beginning of the thread, because judyblueeyes appeared right after SI(Bob) was let go, and attempted to take advantage of the confusion, but was canned very fast.

Why did he do it? Fun?

Finally someone who thinks. Good. They wanted to lynch me. Ban elmat outright without give me the chance to defend myself.
They will wake up asking why is he still posting? Why he's not hanging in the end of a rope?
