Those who remember him would appreciate why this code word would honor him accordingly. Barak. He was a most amusing character (to be contrasted with another most amusing character - Richard Feynman).

Additional note. I forgot Barak's first name. Searched for his book. Could only find a professor of same name who (I believe) is not him. Anyone remember who Barak (who had to be in the Philly area) is or where is book is found (or was it published by Vanity Press)?

I'd rather the new users figure it out or try to convert the attention whores. Of course this comes from someone who anonymoused humbug. *shrug* I just don't want banning to become commonplace.

humbug and dov got tossed for being really awful. I used the anonymous sign in to tell humbug in a round about way that he needed to rein it in. I guess I shoulda gone toe to toe, but I thought it was funnier that way.
