This suggestion has been made before, by me, at least, I think it was me,
and some others as well, but I didn't dig it up. (it was rather divisive at
the time)
Even just using two sig blocks helps a lot and I think Suz is already trying
very hard to do just that. It's easy to forget though.
Given her limited connectivity and the way that signin/out works it may be a
bit of a constraint to ask her (or Dan or Jen or whoever) to actually post
from two IDs at this point. I can dig up some info on why it is pretty hard
to do, it's from about the time that official LEGO ids were first restricted
to the lego.mumble.mumble hierarchy.

Was that in an official or unoffical capacity? :-) It's got a lot of numbers
on it!
