I can think of three reasons, I'll give you one and see if others can get any more.
1. how do we know if "flying frog" is john smith as he says?, he could be Cloudesley Shovell (I think that name is fabulous) seafarer I believe.
2. they don't want to be identified because their boss might realise why they weren't at work last Tuesday ?
( by the way, the only reason I don't use my name is because when I signed up ,I stupidly got the impression that's what everyone on here did !! Retired these days too ,so No.2 doesn't apply to me ). Bill Turner (not on Lee's list )
By the way, I can't think of any point in keeping any list that's full of errors and missing many participents.Why doesn't he just keep a list of ,say,the top 50 -which would probably be possible to validate and therefore have some credibility.
