Guest guest Posted November 28, 2011 Report Share Posted November 28, 2011 Liz and All, If there were only 20 of us, that would be a great thing to do, but, since there are many members here who only read the list and don't actively participate, it would mean that we still don't really know who all would have access to our personal information. When this was brought up before, the privacy protection that has been a source of comfort and security to so many was the reason we decided against it. The compromise was that, if people wanted to share their information with one another, they could ask for people to contact them " off the list " by personal emails. I think that still makes great sense to me since there are so many of us. In a way, this has naturally occurred with Facebook. Many folks have friended one another as a way to share more kinds of info via Facebook, including things that do not necessarily come up on our list conversations. Donna? Joan? anything more to add to this? I just wish for everyone an uneventful, boring, hum-drum night with your family- no drama, no excitement. Yeah, I wish....!
