    *shrugs* I'm not concerned with my identity, why should anyone else?
    and having survived a number of net.loons intact, I'd prefer that
    they actually have to work to find me in meat.space.

    I certainly hope we have higher standards! Hmmm? Jayson Blair is on
    line 1??

    Actually, it's the opposite. I have a relatively unique surname. The
    nym has been thru a long evolution to reach its current state. And has
    a history and a life of it's own.

    D'oh! I have to wonder if "Thomas Dickey" is familar with "Student's
    t-test", one of the now standard statistical tests. The name Student
    was a nym for publishing anonymous treatises. According to TD's
    thesis, the t-test should be rejected *simply* because we don't know
    who did the work.

    If I can get them to namecalling, I'm already 2/3rds the way to
    "winning"...

    I feel the need for a disclaimer: past performance is no indication of
