There's really no way to stop it, as far as I can tell


Indeed; I compared its method of propogation to a very successful virus as it's alomost impossible to stop once out there... which is why I think in the end FunkyLA is right and we will end up allowing them for everyone since the list will grow and grow over time but will never be reduced.
It is dangerous to be right in matters where established men are wrong

Would it help if there were an option to ignore (not display) the birth year?  So if there is data in the BY field and a user isn't interested in it, he could opt to not display it.

I agree with james that we're gonna hafta live with a lot of undocumented BY data before long - and won't be able to find out who first entered it.
