I chose this username specifically for FreeBSD mailing lists and it's all I use it for. I have other usernames for other things including one with my real name, on another system, that I use for "personal" communications with friends and family. If people don't like it they can just filter me out. I'm not here to make anyone comfortable, I'm here to get the latest information about FreeBSD, my OS of choice and *IF* I can help someone else with information I may have, I might choose to share it. > > If you would call you John Smith, or Thomas Jefferson if you > want, you could much more easily hide your (hideous?) precence in > the lists.
