I believe I am abiding by the letter, if not the spirit. If you notice,
the mail list (and I believe the news group) headers show who I "really"
am:
X-Real-Life-Name: Christian Holtje
In addition, the web list is even more explicit:
From: The Doctor What <docwhat@gerf.org>
Christian Holtje
If you don't think this is enough, I will spend some time to have my
everchanging .sig explain who I am, whenever I post to @lugnet.com...
As a side note, DocWhat, is just as much me, as "Christian Holtje". More
so in some ways, as most people can't pronounce "Holtje". (It's actually
spelt "Höltje", with an umlaut (two dots) over the 'o', but I wasn't sure
that it'd come out okay.)
As for Bud Abbot: Tom Baker et al have taken first base, so I get
second base....
