Yes, but after reading that certain members were recognized -- by screen name -- by clerks at Brook Brothers, and so on, I don't really care for someone showing up one day and saying "hey, didn't I just see your shoe collection on that Andy forum?"

That, and some of us have screen names which are used in other forums which they do not want their actual identity associated with. Google my handle and you get the idea.
