Hi Liz, I think it is important that your views are expressed as you have done. I hope that in terms of the issue of information we can evolve to be more in control of how our individual information is used. I do not think that there has been any additional information requested to sign up, so even if the legal disclosures which are now posted seem to include other information, I think this is so becasue of the now realized potential for "sale"; it remains to be seen whether or not more individual information will be requested. Your post does bring home the concept that "interest" in using a forum will be affected by the indvidual's privacy limitations as far as information is concerned.
