It's so annoying when people don't listen, isn't it? I can spell out my surname twice, and still have people write it down incorrectly. I originally used a pseud because, while I can make posts "friends only", I can't always know who those friends really are ... If they know my name, they could just track me down and show up on my doorstep! And what I write could come back to bite me on the ass, in certain circumstances.
