This denial comes as a total surprise, since others have used the vocative in public (and private forums)
without causing denial or umbrage. Why the objection now? What are you hiding from? - Grampy Bobby
Why? That's not your business. The TOS protects my right to privacy if you have more questions.
If I ever claim to be someone I am not, you are welcome to call me out, in case you want to go down another road.

Why is first name identity disclosure such a hot button issue for some? Plx help a dinosaur left over from the Ewardian Wilderness to understand.

Originally posted by Grampy BobbySome of us have good reasons to be paranoid about name disclosure. For instance, if I were to disclose my name, then the Witness Protection program would have to uproot me and move me to a new location and new identity. It's incredibly disruptive and expensive, so I try to keep a low profile.
