        Re: member id's: simple numbers or something more? —Todd Lehman

     (...) Heh heh. No, they're not supposed to work; they don't exist. I meant that it boiled down to a choice between *format* A and *format* B, where the two formats were shown by example rather than parameterized. Sorry for the confusion. --Todd (25 years ago, 5-Jul-99, to lugnet.admin.general, lugnet.general)

     (...) Oops, sorry about that! I guess my fingers automatically typed "...schme..." for some reason. Maybe because there's a William Schmeckpeper in the online LEGO fan world.

     (...) Actually, I don't see that as much of an issue. As an example, my e-mail address shows up as "galliard@shades-of-night.com", however, the actual POP box I am assigned is "shadesofnight03", which has yet another designation for netnation (...)
