Keith, 

I usually view these online -- if I'm on my computer with a nice big 
monitor I can see things ok when folks like you have an email address and 
name that make things clear. Unlike you, lots of folks do not even do that 
-- and my comment was more a reflection of that than of you, specifically. 
 In this case I was looking at the web interface on my phone, where the 
headers get truncated, and soI can easily miss the name in the email 
address. I fully admit I could/should open each one and examine the headers 
in case folks identify themselves there, but sometimes don't, and my aging 
eyes don't always deal with how stuff shows up. Ah, well. I'm getting 
cranky and don't mean to be - -time to go just ride!    :)
