Alan,
That's a good point, about tracking the IP address. I'm so used to VPNs and TOR muddying the water that I never bother, but I doubt that's much of an issue here on Tarboard. Besides (and I don't mean this to sound critical of you or anyone else who does that bit of sleuthing), I always feel like a stalker...
All that said, it looks like it isn't infallible: plugging in your IP address to five different IP locators has you variously near Albequerque, New Mexico, USA; Milan, Italy; San Mateo, California, USA; Jakarta, Indonesia; or somewhere in the middle of China. So either you're running TOR, you've got an *exhausting* travel schedule, or the internet search engines aren't entirely reliable (shocking, I know).
But yes, I'm in Olympia, WA. The very south end of Puget Sound.
