VoyForums Announcement: Programming and providing support for this service has been a labor of love since 1997.

We have even fought hard to defend your privacy in legal cases; however, we've done it with almost no financial support -- paying out of pocket to continue providing the service. Due to the issues imposed on us by advertisers, we also stopped hosting most ads on the forums many years ago. We hope you appreciate our efforts.

Bill, thanks for the thoughtful response. Clearly you have more information and background on this story than those of us getting the details second or third hand. I do find it interesting that you and others already felt confident in the ID from photographic evidence prior to the banding attempt...but even with this, I know there is a mentality to "band it" by some people.

As you mention, all we can hope is to learn something from this unfortunate experience.

Brian
