Names I agree, are important, although you would have no idea whether I am
using my own name or a pseudonym.
As far as location - If I put my Australian state, and zone, without putting
what country I live in, many people would have no idea what it meant.
I can work out who many of the regular posters are from their e-mail
addresses, but the vast majority do not include their country, so I have no
idea where they live, unless I have a good memory, and a good grasp of world
geography, and even so, many place names are duplicated.
Is it reasonable for listers to assume most other listers are from the US?
(remember there are new list members joining all the time) I ask this
because most of the other lists I am on, I would be very stupid to make this
assumption.
