    Actually, you use your real name when you send emails :-) That's how I got to know who you really are O:-)

    BTW, how much will you pay me to refrain myself from telling the world that you are... cough, cough.

    Anyway, I know what you feel... I just don't know if something can be done in that regard... :-\ I will ask.

      Unfortunately, I inadvertantly used my company mailbox to send the proposals to you. I don't usually use that for social and Perl type things. However, it really isn't difficult to find it. It's just that I don't use it for these sort of things, and am reluctant to leave it lying around.

      However, I have found the solution ... first name='Barbie', last name='-'. That'll do for me :)

        You know... I know only one person who goes by a nickname and doesn't want people knowing how he's called in real life: you.

        OTOH, I know tons of people whose real name is widely known but that I'm sure would do *anything* as to not let people know they'd go by the nickname of "barbie" :-)

            No, I don't *know* chromatic :-)

            I've heard of him, but haven't met him :-)
