I couldn't agree more. It's no different than giving all your personal info
to any stranger on the street. You wouldn't do it on the street, and you
shouldn't do it on usenet. When I was a sysop on compuserve, one of the
things we were *required* to do was pull any message that had such info.
It's just plain stoopid.

posting addresses and phone numbers is - well, stupid and churlish.

If anybody wonders why the world is going to hell in a hand basket,
all they have to do is look at Usenet for a day.

Honest to pete - what a bunch of maroons.
