I know I have no right to say anything on this site because I'm not a pro, just a DIY'er for myself, but I have learned a LOT of information here on the craft of upholstery. I for one would miss hearing all the ins and outs of the business end. I truly hope you will put up with me on your wonderful site, otherwise I will be quite sad! 
Isn't the site already set up to stay incognito, if you wish, with out a "pro only room". If I didn't post my web site, And put as little info as possible on my profile. And gave as little info as possible about my location on the posts. Who would ever know who I was. Chris, Denis, both Mikes, June, Gene, Daren to name a few. I know your first names but haven't a clue your last. And Bobbin I consider you a good friend but I know neither you first or last. I know where most of you live but only because you told me through you post's. I may be wrong but if you truly wanted to be incognito it wouldn't be that hard. Maybe to late for some of us but I would hate to exclude any one from our conservations be they general or business.

June or ken (oops almost forgot Bobby)would probably have an answer for you Big John. I have to agree with Suzi and the others that believe that we all appreciate that what we say could be read by anyone and that we all write accordingly. All it does is prevent customers from coming in and being able to gather information on our pricing strategies I see the other side of that coin:If I tell someone that a job takes x hrs and they think that just bending some tubing and sewing some canvas on it should only take a couple of hours--- I'd far sooner them research it her and find me right than catching that You tube vid of the African American chap who was explaining how to make a bimini from ABS pipe etc... in his back yard for <$200. (we have to dig that link back up-- it was hilarious!!). If I say it'll be 10 yard and they don't believe me--they can hear it here. I'd almost go so far as to say that their attendance here is an excellent opportunity to educate/inform them. That said, and having had this brought to our attention; we have the resources to PM each other as per  ?? what a tee nut costs in North Dakota vs. Saskatchewan.Ten percent of "I don't know" is the same as 20% of "I have no idea" so the guy in Regina can't try to bully you for the price in Minot. The photos and feed back of our respective works are also a valuable referral. I say let them come---- We all have seen that your work rocks Mojo and that you are unfair to yourself cartwheeling for your customers-- let 'em peek up your nighty  and we'll tell them.
