I understand it's personal, but I also recognize they went out of their way to bring it up. Some people, including me, are more willing to discuss things anonymously because it adds a layer of impersonality. This is just a discussion board. If OP doesn't answer, that's ok. I don't ever think I'm entitled a response.
