BUT they can determine who broke the story by hunting down every post he's made in the last couple of years and tracking it back to a real name?

With some folks, one could not only determine their name, but their pets name, what kind of pet, where they work, if they are married, retired, how many kids, where they go, what they do, who they know, where they vacation, what their politics are, sometimes a DOB, (I've seen that one) what types of vehicles they drive, or what type your going to buy, etc.

Some folks don't care. But for those that do, I would say keep it light, and generic, and avoid specifics such as your name etc. Identity theft and other crimes of this nature are very real and very hard to solve.

>What their politics are... what types of vehicles they drive

Extra Conservative SUV with back window obscured by funny lib hating bumper stickers and Bush/Cheney tags, with Yugo parts still dragging from under the frame. We drive a lot, not because we need to, just like to use the extra gas and assist with the whole global warming thing...
Autographed "Karl Rove" fuzzy dice and a Sat hookup on top so we can blog and drive at the same time.

I really consider it bad form to bring one's self into an argument. Nothing you say is confirmable anyway. Ad Hominem to bolster one's argument is as invalid as ad hominen against someone. I know you can read back through my two years here and find out that I am conservative and against Islam and that's about it. Good thing Buckhead apparently didn't say anything against Islam! (That's what got "Unfit for Command" co-author and outed FReeper Corsi in trouble.)
