Duh---I didn't see this before I posted about it on the Chariot Racing thread.
Anyway, I hadn't been checking in on this thread... I really should do better at getting through ALL the cellar messages. ("Daddy, I'm Hungry!" "Be quiet, I'm reading The Cellar... we'll have dinner before bedtime, I promise.") But it's an appropriate place to mention this. The nickname I have even as I write this is in fact derived from my first initial and my last name. At the time I first signed up for The Cellar (probably 1991), I had no reason to worry about using my real name, and I didn't feel like coming up with an alias. I have now decided that I need to restrain the use of my real name online, and so I am changing my nickname. I'm not sure what the new one will be, but at any rate, you won't have this particular nick to kick around any more.
