Why do so many Forum member not list their location?

Makes good sense to me...Alan M

Not sure why so many Forum member refuse to list their location. The very same ones will advertise an item needed or item for sale and you have no idea if its clear across country or right next door. Its not like the Forum list your house address --- its just the city and state. If you are in a small town then why not list "anytown" and your state? While I'm on location --- why not list where an item for sale is located? I have a CMC hood for sale --- and am in Springfield VA. Since it is oversize it is $130 to ship to California which perhaps makes it not such a good deal as if you were 50 miles down the road and could pick it up and carry it home.

p.s. I'm ground zero --- our nation's capital!

Don't forget that many of us are not in 'our nation'. There are a lot of non U.S. people on this site.

At the risk of making more work for Theron, I wish the members' locations were listed below their names where their "username" is. That way you'd know at-a-glance, rather than having to click on the "username" to see if their profile listed their city.

John you have done it again! Great Idea !

Many are hiding because of witness protection, the 2 Ron's come to mind....

Hey, I listed the other Ron's location....
