I often reply to emails and later think to myself: "hey, this might be of interest to a wider audience". If you ever wish to ask me a question or hold a discussion about general life issues and have it published here without any identifying information, please contact me. The publication can include the names of the people involved, or it can be anonymous with potentially personally identifying information edited out of the text---whatever you prefer.
