Theos-Talk Archives (August 1998 Message tt00478)

I just learned something that maybe everyone but me knew already - that
there is an e-mail program that allows one to send e-mails "anonymously."
I knew one could 'fake' who they were and all that in mails - but I didn't
know there was a program specifically geared to completely hide who the
sender is or from where it originates from.

I just learned this because someone sent me one - it was, as usual in these
instances, not complimentary.  I also know, because of the context and past
exchanges, that the sender is a member of theos-talk.

Gentlemen, courage does include signing one's name to one's thoughts and
ideas - especially when there is no danger that could come from doing so.
There are some instances when remaining completely anonymous is necessary,
but I fail to see how doing so in this example is necessary.  In addition,
sending a post with no origination also does not allow the person accused
to reply or defend themselves.  Quite untheosophical, not to mention rather
wussy, in my opinion.

So, to be fair, I guess I'll have to send big, bad, ugly response posts to
ALL of you. (ok, just kidding - but to do such a thing would provide me a
good amount of twisted glee - yet, alas, I cannot - damn that thing called
"conscience").
