Honestly, Andy I don't really know WHY I did it except that it felt
good at the time. I could just as easily have changed nicks and wrote
like a different person if I was trying to hide or if I was so ashamed
of my conduct that I needed a new identity. But I didn't do that, and
I won't do that. If I screw up, I'll admit it publically (like I have
so far) and just move on. If it's such incredibly bad behavior that I
feel the need to hide, I just wouldn't post here any longer. It's not
like the universe requires me to post in RFC - it's a hobby, not a
lifestyle <G>.
