I half agree with you there...
They might express their true opinions from the perceived safety and anonymity of a Net forum, but in real life they'd probably edit heavily, if not lie or clam up entirely. See, it's different when it's up close and personal...

Yeah. There are some whose lives appear to be wider-open books than most, but not too many.
