[ARC5] It's Not Just Facebook

[Scott Robinson]

Folks,

I think that Fernando has pointed out an important difference between 
public and private groups. One of the virtues of a list like this one is 
that the sometimes scarce and detailed info collected can be found now 
or later by someone needing it.

Regards,

Scott Robinson
