> First: This is probably due to some deficient element in my head, but it is also related to one of Dr. Bob's survey questions. I find it a lot more difficult to feel like I know ("know") people on the board who don't use regular names. Like "know" in the sense that I can keep track of who they are from prior messages. For example, I was greatly relieved when chdurie2 became Caroline to me. (Forgive me Caroline, if you don't appreciate being an example). Ksvt, I really like reading your posts, but I have had a harder time with continuity, although I am trying really hard. (Maybe I'll just name you!). I also have a harder time with symbolic names, not so much in continuity, but in imagining a real person. Please, please, please, this is not a criticism, just a personal observation which I take full responsibility for having. Really!
