Maybe I'm strange, but I have never cared if an employer or potential
employer has cared what I say in public forums. My opinions are open.

I've said things in staff meetings that have cost me promotions, but
I believed had to be said. And then I've gotten the promotions anyway
because I was the best systems analyst my unit has ever had.

So am I worried that my employers might check the archived lists? Frankly
even if they had the time, I've spoken my mind more openly straight to
them.

I still feel that if you are not willing to stand 100% behind what you
say (and of course admit when you're wrong) then why are you saying it
in the first place?
