Jim, Got a question for you and consider this an academic one as I'm not trying to start a peeing match.
Why should you care if someone wants to share info on eastern/central WA spring creeks? I know of three of them that do real well and suspect that the one mentioned on the front cover of Fly Fisherman isn't a "central WA" spring creek. My guess... it's further east. No clues more than that. Also, why should someone else care if you choose to publicly share fishing info... or also.... not share fishing info.? One of my secret lakes got revealed on this bb. I was guilty of the same act as you as I sent the guy private email and asked him why he did it. His reply was he thought that lake was common knowledge. This might end up stirring up some discussion, but let's keep it from getting heated.
