An invitation for members to use their real name

[Nick Gellie]

I've had a number of people ask to have their user name changed to reflect their real name of late, and I applaud this change. I'd like to invite anyone wishing to do so to post your request as a replyhere, and I'll be happy to. Certainly not for everyone, but those of you that have been around and are staying around, there's simply no reason to not use your real name. Using your real name adds credibility to your participation. We will not entertain changes of anonymous to anonymous, ie., if you're wanting to change from 'bubba61' to 'tatereater419.'

Please let this post/thread stand as is and not have it be a place to post silly comments about user names. Thank you.

Scott, could you please change mine to Nick Gellie from NG53. Thanks Nick

[Birtie Dean]

I'm already using a version of my real name: Birtie is short for Roberta & Dean is my middle name. I combined them for a nice Tennessee / Bluegrass-y sound. No one can spell or pronounce my last name, Caraglia, which is courtesy of my Italian ex-husband. ;-)

Birtie

Hello, Scott. You can change mine from MandoMomma to Betsy Biemann. (The former isn't relevant anymore anyway, since my son now plays the sax.)

I guess I need to start practicing once in a while now...Seriously, though, this is a wonderful community and site. So far, I've learned a great deal and had some great laughs. Thanks for all the effort that you - and everyone else - put into it.
