Ooh, me too! I would like to drop the W from my username. If there are any duplicate accounts, just delete the old one. :)

OK, you are now Mike, instead of member. I can't change your username and Mike is taken anyway.
If you'd like something in lieu of, let me know.

Unfortunately renaming a user account is a little difficult because of the way the tables work... they cache the name of the poster all over the place for speed reasons, but that makes renaming rather difficult.

I"d like to drop the tech and just be called granny. I don't think anyone got the oxymoron. I see we can change the avatar. Scott, I don't recognize you anymore with your baseball cap on:)

"granny" all by itself is reserved for ladies over 70.

From now on, I want you all to call me "Loretta". It's my right as a man.

Age limit - I don't know. But when the ladies are younger, they rather not have the kids call them granny (Oma in German) in public. I had observed that in a couple of cases.
