Your OWN name appears in black, others will see it in red as usual. I don't think this is explained anywhere, so it always worries first-timers!

David Not to worry - that is correct. To you it is Black so that it is more noticeable for you to update and/or delete it. To all other members is it Red. No need to put your e mail address on the message board. The first contact to you is thru the site. Also NEVER, NEVER add your personal telephone/fax/text numbers on the message boards.
