Hi all,

On a few occasions, group members have emailed

me expressing their horror that their postings to

can be found with Google searches. I have this group

set up to be viewable to the general public so that

people suffering from ES might actually find this

group. If you do not wish your name to turn up in

a Google search, then please only post from an

email account which doesn't reveal your name.

will automatically obscure all

email addresses to non-subscribers, so you don't

need to worry about that.

People have even asked that I erase all messages

in the archives that include their name. That

seems a bit excessive to me, especially for posts

which have already been in the archives

for years...

I think it is good to have people able to find the group in such a

way, I'm certainly grateful that I was able to find it that way.
