I'm in full agreement that we should use our names in lieu of an "alias". It just seems more personal. Maybe if we all knew each other well, an alias (or more properly a user name) would work, but for newcomers it tends to look like "insiders" talking back and forth.

You'll always see me here as Doug Conley. I buy/sell on ebay as "luvcacabernets1@cox.net" (which shows my other hobby, collecting California wines).
