I didn't handle the removing the people from the list issue very well.
I got caught in the fact the log immutably records history and I
objected to editing history. I viewed this along the lines of George
Washington asking to be removed from text books. He was the first
president; we can't change that and we have to include him in the list
of presidents.

I still don't have a good solution for how to track the people who
don't want their names to appear without creating yet another list.
