[ Radsafe ] identification of posters

[Neil, David M]

Without disagreeing with you at all, a couple of things can be pointed out.

That discussion happened long enough ago that the poster who set the whole thing off probably never knew of it.
And depending on the email platform used, they may not have been aware of appearing anonymous in the first place.

Radsafe messages I get are all identified with the original sender, although comments indicate that you, and some other correspondents, may not see it that way. So the assumption that you are automatically identified is easy to make.

So much for my 2 Groschens worth :-)

RADSAFErs and RADSAFE,

It has been discussed some time ago, that persons participating at
RADSAFE should identify themselves. Originally I have put forward this
proposal. This rule was actually approved, but it seems that it has been
forgotten. I am aware, that some of the ones, flaming without ever
having contributed anything to RADSAFE and not identifying themselves,
probably anti-nuclear groups who disturbed RADSAFE already might be
heavily opposed to this proposal, but I would regard this as a normal
conduct. If someone does not reveil his or her identity and not stand
for his or her opinion he or she should refrain from participating and
posting. Whether this rule would be compulsory is only up to the list
owner. Maybe that would help to improve the conduct of this list.
