Well here is another challenge...;-)

I am sure I could invite many SI members to a party and pinpoint all their identities within a few minutes chatting with each. I could locate you very quickly--as I could Poet, E, X, Cosmic, Mars, Karen, JC, and many others. The fact that I would not know their birth name or address is not pertinent to the "knowing". People can use any name, live anywhere, wear anything--or nothing at all. Buy they are always a discreet entity--occupying space/time in a distinct way.

Now I would like to know how many people YOU could invite to the party to be reasonably sure of seating each one at the correct place setting at table! :-) And you would not be allowed gross and boorish initiatives such as spraying each woman with perfume in order to locate Karen...<gg>
