<ul>
   <li>Don't email anything to anyone that you wouldn't mind reading
       out loud 10 years down the road to everyone on Earth.
   <li>Don't write a journal entry, paper, or other item published
       on the Internet that you wouldn't mind reading out loud 10
       years down the road to everyone on Earth.
   <li>Don't put up photos that you wouldn't mind showing in a
       very large slide show 10 years down the road to everyone 
       on Earth.
   <li>Double check everything you publish on the Internet BEFORE
       you publish it.
   <li>Don't make jokes about your relatives--they could be computer illiterate
       but someone from work could tell them.
</ul>
<p>
   If you want to do these things, write them in a private journal.
   You know--one of those paper kind.
