Well for all you guys with 'common names', being tracked down is a little
bit more difficult. Googling my name brings up tons of hits that are indeed
mostly me (there are a few dead ones, and my mom, who has the same name and
a couple others I don't know..). At least important contact info comes up in
the first 10 hits, and as far as I can tell I haven't send anything
compromising on any lists that I can tell though I am a bit worried that my
books are listed on a site called psychohelp.... ;)
