Many message boards require "registration" before you can post; that is, you must choose a screenname and add a bit of information (usually your email address, full name, and city of origin at minimum). Having that sort of requirement here would at least remove the guessing game of which and how many "GUESTS" are causing trouble...and force Mudcatter regulars to be more forthcoming and upfront with their opinions instead of using the GUEST handle to hide behind. This would not help those who post as "GUEST" to get help with a sensitive issue like infidelity or incontinence, but such posts probably do not belong on this forum, anyway.

Oh, and while i don;t know as i would want to sit down and discuss politics with him, I think Jack the sailor has made some excellent points re: what's sauce for the goose is sauce for the gander.
