noa, I agree with you !!! I figured this had come up before given the board's nature. You're very right about what to do if the message is sent directly to your EMail address. Very difficult decision to make. It really boils down to: We really don't *know* each other, maybe we think we do but I'm not sure that is what really happens. I think that's the way it should stay. The types of relationships that develop are unique, as they are with any *public* board.... and despite registering, it is public !!!
Here is another area with another situation where our technology has surpassed our ability to deal with the true ethics of the concept.
