	Well.... I have read threads about people taking info off of peoples trees and using it for other purposes other than family history. For example identity theft and there are people who like to just collect names for their trees without bothering to do any research at all. I personally have not put info for living people on mine and am happy to share if someone is interested. We aren't really supposed to add anyone living to our trees without permission if we are going to share. I think I'm sobering up...where's that bacardi bottle??
