I was quoted in an article by Jane when the Kellogg's promotion first started. She asked my permission as I recall, and we had a phone conversation. I think if someone's real name is quoted but gotten from the profile and our permission is not asked, it feels like an invasion of privacy and compromises our feelings of safety in expressing ourselves. I think she made a mistake, and perhaps by virtue of the planned conversation that didn't take place, assumed consent which you in fact didn't give her. Perhaps a letter directly to her would rectify the situation.
