RE: New mailing list: USA911

Chris,

That's the way I took it.  Bob C. made the same point a few months back, and
I started using my name briefly then.  But after a while I reverted.

James Jay Toran

Hey, I wasn't picking on you jt. Use of initials or nicknames seems fine
with
me. I just really feel like it opens a different level of communication when
people use their name. It could just be from the years of BBSing. Way too
many foolish people calling themselves "Master Hacker" who had trouble
finding the diskette drive.

Anyway, I didn't mean to be saying there way anyone on this list who I felt
was "hiding."
