When I was about 11-12 years old; growing up in South Carolina, I went to a week-long summer camp. As I arrived at that small cottage that would be my shared cell for this ordeal, I introduced myself to the 8 or so other "campers", as Dave Rivers; simply to find that every one in the hovel was also named "Dave" - including the counselor. For an entire week, we had to choose alternate names - "Dave" was simply forbidden as untenable. I suppose someone had a good laugh over that. So - it seems it can get much worse before we need to resort to such drastic steps :-) - Dave Rivers -
