Clearly your address and phone number were published in Stereo World "for=
everyone to see". When you begin making public statements it's hard to
limit just what part of the public is to be permitted to hear them.
On the larger issue of somebody's website culling information from old
magazines, it's quite common to find kids (and some not-so-kids) on the
Internet wanting to look terribly knowledgable and creative without havin=

expect the site to wither and die pretty quickly, since the "creator" is
apparently not willing to put any original work into developing it.
