Tuesday, September 10, 2002 AD No, Rick, You're Not on Crack Several people have puzzled over my e-mail address (ebyrch@....) when they find out what my last name is. Here's the scoop: long, long ago (OK, so maybe about three or four years ago), in a galaxy far, far away (OK, so it was in Halethorpe, Md.), when I first entered the cyberrealm, I was shy about using my real name in public. I therefore adopted a pseudonym -- Elizabeth Byrch. Everyone knew it was a pseudonym, and eventually I came clean with my real name, but I still use that Hotmail account. Since I try to be careful not to post my real last name in public places, this causes some confusion. Which reminds me, that if I'm going to link to my Amazon wish list, I need to figure out how to avoid having folks see my last name. Posted by Valerie (Kyriosity) at 9/10/2002 09:47:00 PM
