People who are anonymous should stay that way, even in life. Never, if you stand on your principles should you be anonymous. As a Marine Disabled Vet, we used to say, "I would rather die on my feet then live on my knees." That probably sums up what I think about anonymous people.

There's no point in posting anonymously. You can't interact without outing yourself. And something creating that much of a drama in my professional life that I would need to conceal my identity, I probably wouldn't be posting online at all.
