No, I only do that when a new member shows up who only gives an e-mail address but no name.

Psst! You know what I found? Apparently a certain Brineller has been lying to us: a search on his name revealed that this member, who says he is single, is in fact married! Oddly enough, I also found a site that says he died several years ago... Somehow, he must have found a way to post from the afterlife...)
