Not to be terse, but the subject says it all. I've not seen you around
here before recently, so in case no one's said it yet, welcome to
LUGNET, and nice job on the advice. Thanks.

Yes, I concur, but I have a question for you, Doc.  Did you used to play
second base for Bud Abbott?;-) All seriousness aside, this isn't RTL, and
although a few folks here are known by nicknames, they have been around and
everyone *knows* them.  Not in your case.  Actually, you may even be
violating the terms of use for LUGNET by *not* using it.

4.  Post using a pseudonym, alias, screen-name, handle, alter-ego,
         meno, or any other type of name which is not your own or which
         hides your true identity, unless your real name and identity is
         clearly understood, accepted, and documented by the community as
         the true identity behind such messages.

We want to get to know *you*:-) follow-up to .general
