This is off-topic for this thread, but the thread is almost at the limit anyway, and this is also the thread where use of pseudonyms has recently come up.
I know John disagrees with me, but I encourage people to use pseudonyms whenever possible.

I won't try to enumerate specific risks, but there
*are* risks. Just as I'm sure you all practice safe sex, you should also practice safe web-surfing.
For those with WSJ subscriptions, there was an on-line article on the subject today:
