Name...
It was a dark and stormy night... no. wait. It was 1999. I had lurked at FR for months and could no longer bite my tongue. So it was time to join.
At the time I was reading a book
Present at the Creation about the Constitutional debates.
When it was time to choose a name, I thought of the "author" of the Federalist Papers, publius; it was already taken. publius 2, 3, etc. all the same. So I just gave up and picked an old PIN number my daughter and I shared while she was in college. That worked.
No, that account has not been active for years...
