Although I certainly understand your sentiment. It isn't personal. It is
professional. If people are taking personally (and I certainly have),
they need to step the heck back, take a breath and ask themselves what
their problem is.
If they won't, then someone in the community needs to step up and help
them do that. The more we remove the ID, the more productive we will become.
