Martin Gibson,

Susan....

You dope. :~) I was agreeing with you and addressing people who DO it. Not disagreeing with you! :~)

I don't mind the fictitious characters playing parts of a story, either, or people going totally anonymous to get a furball up, with some privacy to be hoped for.

But "I'm a member but I'm posting anonymously cuz I don't want any flak" is just DUMB. You aren't as *anonymous* as you *think*! And you double the flak aimed atcha by adding the GUEST thing to the situation!

And brucie, never mind if SUSAN doesn't like your two-handled-ness, it's a site no-no. It's in the FAQ, ONE membership to a customer. Yabbut, I know, it's usually GUEST GROK, well, if it's not OK to have two identities according to the FAQ, doesn't that tell ya sumpin?

The scary-sad thing is, most of y'all that hang out here anymore weren't here when the mutiple-identity thing just about killed the place, and some people really did get hurt. I guess gray hairs are invisible in text-- don't listen to those of us who hung in and stayed and learned some tough lessons. [muttering] Damn folkies, so conscious of their rights-- "busy drilling holes in their own boats."
