To all,
    First, thank you all for your concern about my posting of personal information.  On all of your advice, at the end of this week, I will send a personal e-mail to Robert and ask him to redact the information I provided, as I have made my point.
     I have four short points in this post:

     1.) It would be unprofessional and unethical to post my work on the internet, but not for the reason you cite.  My clients have paid me for a service.  I protect the information that I send to my client because I have added value to it (by collecting and writing search notes), which they have purchased.  To post it for free perusal on the net would be a theft of their purchase.  If I wish to do search work during my off hours on a random name or property, and post those search notes and copies on the internet, there is nothing inherrently unethical, unprofessional, or illegal about it.  

     2.)What is Public Record, is Public Record.  If it's Sealed Record, then it's not Public Record, and that is a different conversation.  The clerk's ethical and professional obligation ends with the accuracy and the physical protection from tampering of the Public Record.  They have no professional obligation, nor athority (regardless of ethics), to prevent the release of the information contained in the public record, in any format, regardless if that information may harm an individual or not.

     3.) I actually looked up the quote you keep referencing.  Donald Rumsfeld wrote it about a terrorist training manual in a DOD OPSEC memo on January 14, 2003.  It says "USING PUBLIC SOURCES OPENLY AND WITHOUT RESORTING TO ILLEGAL MEANS, IT IS POSSIBLE TO GATHER AT LEAST 80% OF INFORMATION ABOUT THE ENEMY."  Nowhere in the training manual did it ever talk about the internet.  Rumsfeld concludeds that they access the internet, and spoke about DOD OPerational SECurity (Capatilized for reference above) of posting missions on the DOD Website (it's real short).

http://www.defenselink.mil/webmasters/policy/rumsfeld_memo_to_DOD_webmasters.html

     4.) The List that Sec. Rumsfeld put together is exactly what I was looking for from a Public Records security standpoint, not only from web access, but also from a physical access standpoint.  I have copied it as follows for those of you who don't want to look at the memo directly.

A.) Verify that there is a valid mission need to disseminate the information to be posted.
B.) Apply the OPSEC Review Process.
C.) Limit Details.
D.) Use required process for clearing information for public dissemination.
E.) Protect information according to its sensivity.
F.) Ensure reviewing officials and webmasters are selected and have recieved appropriate training in security and release requirements in support of DOD web policy.
