Hello, Rick.
I have the same attitude, in that my email is an anon why mouse free mail...However, I try always to reply publicly to share. One of the strong points of this board, to me, is, as drdashbob says, it is as good to give as well as receive.
There are times, I admit, that I would like there to be an email, so i could just respond to that person. Often that is after I have read a number of that person's posts and feel that I know them. Often, as you have observed, there isnt an address. Part of that may be due to how the privacy statement is worded, noticing that others don't post emails, and, of course, what Greg experienced. I have used Open Chat to exchange email, as that is not archived. But not everyone goes there, or I miss the person I am looking for...then there are the "members" email addresses listed in the Yahoo Open Chat...so, I guess, putting my address on this message would be more direct...hmmm, this has gotten me thinking...
In some ways, I look at PB and PBS as similar to standing in a public park, with a sign saying "LOOK HERE< > I AM BIPOLAR AND WILL TALK TO ANYONE"
