Robert, Thank you. I don't mean to be rude, but you have the option to ignore/not reply the mails you don't feel like answering (or hard to find addressing).
So, I think we can take it easy. As I said, people have good reasons for things they do. Anyway, thanks for expressing your idea about names. People who have read it and has the luxury of following it will surely follow it I believe. And also thanks for the others who has chimed-in some good fun in previous replies. It was good time reading them, though I won't be having much left to spare for any more replies on this topic. As I said I don't like debates. PS: By the way, who ever said "Rice" or "Bush" or "Bill" are more human names than Night or Hawk :-) -------------------------------- On Tue, Mar 25, 2008 at 1:25 AM, Robert Osfield <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Hi Coleman, > > > On Mon, Mar 24, 2008 at 6:39 PM, Night Hawk > <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > I can understand your point and don't want to start a debate on it, > > but just want to say that those who use the "cool names" has a good > > reason for doing so (at-least some, if not all, of us).
