It's okay, Alison. I really was just sharing my decision with everyone and letting them know. I wasn't fostering another one of these endless, never agree to disagree threads, again! Thanks for bringing it back to the subject.

After all of this, I've decided not to use ANY of the designations, except the music related ones for adding lyrics, etc. I am with you in being dismayed at the recent tone and sickened that this rages on, esp. the personal attacks from anyone, but esp. from those who post anonymously.

As I've said before, Max said he likes a healthy mix, and that is the final and definitive word for me. Anyone going into a thread I start can take their chances or try to guess by the name. I do try to be as specific as possible. That is one of the first things I learned when I came to the Mudcat looking for lyrics.
