It's so nifty how many folks are using their real names now, 'stead of funky made-up ones. Shows a level of comfort with us being who we really are. As (I think) the only one on the board who not only has a legitimate "used" pseudonym but a nickname I was called all the way through college, I confess I don't enjoy screen names and always use my own now. My own real e-mail, my own real address when somebody needs/wants to send me something, my really truly phone number, and so forth. Did this for years and years when I was running Helpers' Network--my actual name and phone number available worldwide, and nothing much bad came of it except all the bills got delivered correctly. (Not that I paid 'em, of course.) So to those who have recently unhusked themselves from strange online names, know I appreciate and approve of it even though it means I have to learn a whole batch of different names for a lot of folk I feel I've come to know quite well.

I wrote in Part 74: Didn't get an answer before it shut down, so thought I'd try again!

Actually, as long as I'm quoting myself, here's a meaty post I put on Part 74 for possible further discussion:

Your appreciation is appreciated. I was thinking of you when I did it. You asked me so nicely a while back to put my name in my posts, so I thought I would make it easier and change my online name as well, but first I had to get you used to my corporeality so as to not confuse anyone. I quite enjoy sharing with everyone here, at least they can know me by my real name now.

I thank you for the compliment, but I still don't know fulk! Speaking of fulk. Did you hear that the FCC is going to allow "fulk" on the airwaves as long as it isn't used in a sexual manner? So fulk away all you want. The PTB say it's ok - as long as you ain't talking about fulking.

You're kidding!? I wonder who will be the first to use it. Just guessing, but it will probably be a song they play on the radio. Some of them already bleep out fulk, but you can still hear the "f" part of it. I wonder if they'll have to weed out the songs that use fulk in a sexual way. Ha! It's going to get interesting, that's for sure. Tipper will be getting out her bullhorn. BTW - my husband came home with this news, so if it isn't true - don't kill the messenger (me). Thanks.
