Proposition

[Theresa Hepburn]

Are you suggesting that anyone who is not using the same name as what is 
printed on his or her birth certificate is to be removed? Wouldn't that 
discourage anyone who is concerned about protecting their identity? I 
understand your point for currently active members but if this idea were 
policy six months ago I most certainly would not be responding to your 
email today and definitely would never have met you in person.
