Facebook promotes organ donation

According to The New York Times Facebook is promoting organ donation. While this is an admirable campaign, FB is encouraging users to post their birth date as part of the process. DO NOT post your birth date on FB!! What are they thinking?!? Your birth date is a critical piece of data for identify thieves.
Instead of using FB to advertise your organ donation intentions, go to the organ donation registration website for your state. The Utah Donor Registry is at: http://www.yesutah.org/  1-866-YES-UTAH or info@yesutah.org.
For Idaho: http://www.yesidaho.org/.
Share your wishes with your family and physician.
