Let's get real, people.  Standing up in a public forum to state your
views prefaced by "I do NOT wish to be quoted" is, at best, naive.
Perhaps it's reasonable to express the hope that if you are quoted, you
are quoted accurately, and/or in-context, but if you flat-out don't
want to be quoted, then don't say anything in the first place.
