Hi all: I find this thread about discussing salary information on the listserv very interesting. However, as a former Human Resources professional who has some experience with compensation issues I am not sure what the "price fixing" issue is here. It is very likely that I am missing the point being made.
Can someone please help and make the concern more explicit. I would very much appreciate that. Thanks in advance, Biraj Khosla OT - Reg. (Ont.)

Every e-mail message that is sent from one computer to another, regardless of the source, is stored on multiple computers before arriving at it's destination. These "stops" are open gateways to anyone with desire, access and knowledge. So, while only AOTA members may post messages on AOTA's lists, there is no reasonable assurance that these messages remain confined to AOTA members. Interesting discussion!!
