C2997 - pretty obvious. Being new, I am glad you left this nice username for me.

My wife will have hername@gujrathi.net, and all my children will have firstname@gujrathi.net. At the domain site (such as domaindirect.com (there are many others including godaddy (remember the superbowl commercials)) they have unlimited e-mail forwarding, so if you ever change ISP carriers, you will never have to change your e-mail address, just the forwarding address. The only thing is your will have to once inform everyone of the email name change.
That's true, and I do own dougncindy.com - but I'm currently too lazy to set up a website for it (that will change - the wifey wants to put baby pictures there), so I never bothered to do the email forward either.

A friend called me 'OldMan' when I became a father. In many ways it is an oxymoron to what I am, but it has stuck.

I play on the Raptors ice hockey team; and the name is annymous enough to (partially) avoid the embarassment of ocassionally posting before thinking.

Mine's pretty boring in this forum... I'm a Dr (surgeon), and I just bought a 997s. I don't fix 997's (!)... although I'd love to learn.

Growing up in the '70's I was always one of several 'Brian's' in school or event. A 'Brian' usually had to be a 'Brian #1' or 'Brian #2', ect. At the time I signed up it occured to me I faced the name issue again...So I decided to preempt any issue with "The B". Besides everything else I could think of was taken.
