While I would hesitate to buy from an unknown seller, let me say that there is more than one way to know a person, and often not by his name. There may be "legitimate" reasons not to use one's real name on a list such as the LUG. I suspect at least one very esteemed long-time member for changing his name on the list. I do not always take it for granted that the names we see on the list are "real" names, though I think they mostly are on the LUG. Do you really think you know someone just because you know his/her name ? So Sleighteem, stay Sleighteem if you wish. That's fine by me. I hope one day to know more of you , if not yourself. And belated welcome to the LUG. Cheers, - Phong
