There are numerous other possibilities; it could be some kind of customary salutation, or I could simply be incorrectly reporting my name (either accidentally, or as a deliberate falsehood). I claim that I am doing the second of these, and, since my name *used* to be (something which abbreviated to) uin, I think it seems pretty plausible. Since neither making a mistake about your name nor claiming your name is something other than it is are regulated, and the rules make a quite clear distinction between names and titles, I can call myself what I please, as long as I don't claim it's a title. Which I don't. uin. -- _______________________________________________ Sign-up for your own FREE Personalized E-mail at Mail.com http://www.mail.com/?sr=signup Win a ski trip! http://ad.doubleclick.net/clk;3840379;4478627;x?http://www.nowcode.com/register.asp?affiliate=1net2phone3a
