*ONE MORE TIME*....using a name..with or without a cookie set does NOT compromise your 'real' identity!...there are LOTS of folks with 'memberships' here that I could not find if I wanted to!...some I have no idea what continent they are on!...When Max's computer 'reads' a cookie, it is NOT identifying where you are...just that you have a regular name....and this forum is NOT spidered by search engines.
