Re: Accountable Anonymity

Hello,

Greetings.

I fail to believe that unless you document names on paper; to be furnished
on request. The  true concept of anonymity is always failure. There is no
Jesus here. Errors happen; many times intentfully.

God bless everyone with sanity, piousness, humanity, and ethics.
