As a former I/T Professional, this is a pretty safe item, especially when you're not using your real name anyway. (Never use your real, full name or correct birthday - use the first/last/15th day of the month for security reasons).

Just my thoughts on security...I like everyone to be safe :)

I completely agree- you could use just your state, or area of a state, like, Eastern Pennsylvania- I like to know generally where a person is from.
