	I don't think Mr. Ellison tries too hard to hide. When I lived
in LA last (2 years ago), his name and phone # were in the phone book.
I checked this out of curiosity after hearing him make a similar statement
to the one reported above.
	I am in no way defending a**holes who hassle Ellison, just reporting
a fact, so no flames, please.
