Lenny,
I understand your point of view, I could careless now or 15 years ago when I left about my standing within the org, but for others that still have family in, its very difficult to "come clean". As you know, the shunning thing is a terrible thing, some deal with it better than others, but to each his/her own.
I would take the photo thing (and others too) as something to think about...I love seeing the pcitures posted but if I were a person trying to keep "my secret", I can understand others concerns by pming you....
I know, I know, very diplomatic answer, well I am "Demeter, Goddess of the earth and produce, very down to earth" (current active topic...lol).
Its because I am free spirited, I really understand this situation from many aspects.
My humble opinion only...
Nikki
