The privacy issue: for the Annual Reunion in KC, we had personal info sent to us in a PM (like phone #, address, etc.). The other stuff was posted in the Forum. That worked out fine. We had somewhat of a phone tree one year since so many were coming from out of the area. It gave them an emergency contact.
In the
recent KC Reunion wrap up for 2007, it came in handy when Cletis broke down on his way back to Texas.
