Funny though Tony...don't you already have a "secret" handle here anyway?
I have nothing against real names, even though I don't care for my own. But "Sycamore" has become an intricate part of my identity over the past 8 years, first as a musical project and now as a websurfer. It's not an escapism for me, or a way to remain anonymous...I'm the same here as in real life. But internet handles (and CB handles as well) allow another "part" of our persona to flourish.
Besides, I can't run for office under the name "Sycamore." That would be a bit silly I think.
Regards,
Terry Blastenbrei
