Everyone go to Google, and enter your phone number with dashes (555-555-5555), click enter, and see if your personal information pops up. This warning is courtesy of my Aunt Dianna. If you don't want your name and addy popping up on the internet where any freako can find you, there is a remove button. Mine wasn't there, but I looked up some other numbers I knew, and sure enough, there they were. Scary.

Posted by: mesh at July 22, 2003 12:08 PMGood point, Mesh. I guess if someone wants to find you bad enough, they can... Thanks. Now I feel REAL safe... kidding...
Click the telephone icon to edit/remove the number.

Posted by: Courtney Huntington at July 22, 2003 01:39 PMCourtney, are you being sarcastic?
Posted by: Shannon at July 22, 2003 02:04 PMThanks Shannon, your swell.
Posted by: svenska at July 22, 2003 02:22 PMNo sarcasm, Shannon; just the doggone awful truth. Seriously. (If you think that this, too, is sarcastic, I understand . . . but it's not.)
Posted by: Courtney Huntington at July 23, 2003 01:55 PMSure, sure. Of course it's not sarcastic.
