about anonymous statements: I hate to act like an old man, waxing
nostalgic. But here goes. Back when I was a college frosh (at Yale),
the campus workers went on strike. I posted a statement in a prominent
place in the dorm, asking others to support the union. Soon, I
discovered that my statement had been replaced by a petulant screed,
which basically treated the workers like servants, who of course
should never go on strike. A key difference was that the other guy
_didn't sign his statement_. So even people who didn't agree with me
told me how much they respected my opinion, because I was willing to
take responsibility for it.
