Perhaps more relevant (and previously discussed) why don't they say where they live - if only the country?

It would make it so much easier to help people

SKEATS - Surrey
BRETT - Kent & County Durham
and
SWINBANK - anywhere

I agree that putting the country where you live could be helpful 8)

I fail to see how knowing how old someone is,  in any way impacts

on their ability to research or on our ability to assist them ;D.
