Yes. Having some author info doesn't necessarily have to change that. I
*really* like it in a magazine when at the end of an article there is at
least a sentence or two identifying the author. It's important to me.

Yes.

Um. I don't know. I think the members pages are still a great idea and
will work fabulously. More info for those that want it, you know?
