Brad I think you might need a MeatWorld analogy to help you here.
Think of the Web as a giant printing press spewing out paper day and night...

Yep thats the facts, If I *spider* your whole site every 6 weeks and allow
others to view your site as of a past date and look at vs to another date I can
and YOU MUST EXPECT I WILL.
So *only* put up information you are comfortable with having this happen to,
just like a Newspaper Ad, paper flyer or paper catalog. Its in a puplic archive
some where, still there after 20 years, gathering fingerprints from LEGO nuts.

Hope this clears it up for you.
