Understood....

I wouldn't worry about it. I have come to accept that even if some of you gave me your real names, I'd still be calling you by your screen names.
When I put together the Florida FReeper Inauguration Celebration a couple of years back, I finally had an opportunity to learn the "real names" of folks here on FR. Be that as it may, everytime I wanted the attention of anyone, I couldn't remember their "real name" and just hollered out their screen name instead.
Funny thing is, they always responded, no one thought it was weird (except maybe the other diners in the restaurant) and everyone was doing the same thing. I had folks calling me "RMD" all night! LOL!
