   Couldn't a case be made that you are defrauding the public? By that I mean   
   there is no way to distinguish between you and the other Bill Palmer on the   
   list, therefore I have no way of knowing that when I click on a "Bill   
   Palmer" post whether or not I will be getting you or the other one. It seems   
   to me this is the same thing as Pepsi labelling their cans of cola with the   
   Coke label.
