Is there a compelling business reason for this? Is there any real security at 
all needed or desired in this site? If they are all peers, and they know that 
it's a single password, and they are all peers -- so they know each other's 
e-mail address -- and they are all peers -- so they may be human and want to 
prank one another, or spy on one another, or worse. Do you see what I'm saying 
here? Do I have to mention again that they are all peers?
