    Okay - Who were you?

    Greetings! Even though I was pretty active in the old days, I've been reading less and not posting much here for quite some time. I sort of got sidetrackred around the time we moved to PE.org. I know a lot of people have moved on, but I don't recognize a lot of the old PE members who have changed their sign-ons, (or do so frequently).

    So, for the benefit of an old-timer who might recognize you if I knew your former name, can you please list your previous PE identity or identities? (Or you could volunteer the current identity of some of the notorious banned old-school trolls, who may be less inclined to identify themselves.)

    I'm hoping to be in on a few more discussions again, so see you around the clubhouse.

    I think I'm on my 3rd handle, but I only remember at one time I went by Talldwarf.

    Same as it ever was.

    Yeah, me too. I've been Adm.Kirk since 2001. I did add the period so people would quit

    I have gone by the following names at one point or another:

    Poet Liar
    Harmless Criminal
    Freight Pimp

    ..and some others that may have lasted a week or a month...

    Now, I use my real name.

    I know I've had a few but other than Digital Man the ones I used most on PE were Prog_Traveller(still my user name on progarchives even though I stopped logging in there)and Analog Kid(going way back). I chose Digital Man as way of honoring yet upgrading my Analog Kid moniker. I was also briefly Delirium Gatekeeper but believe it or not hardly anyone seemed to understand the reference.

    I was Don Arnold in the previous PE version. For this new one I went with Don Arnold. The idea for this handle came from my mom and dad some 52 years ago! I haven't had any problems so far in remembering it when logging in.

    Same guy, though I've moved on to ramen served at restaurants rather than the packaged stuff.

    I've been known as "Thekouderwunz" when I first started here but right before the switch to the current "Progressive Ears" forum, I changed my name to Chuck AzEee! which a play on my true name Charles Alvarez.

    Once a Garyhead, always a Garyhead! But, it has been brought to my attention that there is a Gary Head in Great Britain. He is a football coach in Devon? He ordered drapes and I got the email about scheduling an install. He also likes some furniture stores and signed up for their e-mail list. He also contacted a caterer about a party...... it would be funny if he was a PE'er......

    Hi, Burble; welcome back! I have the same handle I always had since I discovered Internet discussion forums.

    Same here! It's not like you have to hire a detective to figure out what my actual name is.
