Found this amusing:  a while back, for some open web survey of
"cast your vote for your favorite software", I submitted Vim.
There was a mandatory field for the "company" that produced it,
so I put in Bram's name.

Well, a year or so later, somehow that combination of my name and
Bram as a business found their way together and I just got a
magazine addressed to me at my company, "Bram Moolenaar".  [rolls
eyes]  Well, there are far worse folks to be associated with, so
it's no great crime given that Bram (or what I know of him and
have seen on google-video) is quite an affable fellow.  But
that's technology for you.  It will certainly be a notable marker
if they sell my name to advertisers.

So, according to Sys-Con media's computers, I now work for Bram.
 Maybe someday I'll set their crazy computers straight.  Or maybe
it's not-so-subtle commentary that I spend too much time on the
vim-list. :)

PS:  and I never even heard back whether Vim got any accolades
from the survey. :(
