I respect your assessment, but I trust mine...

If CH told me he was a homosexual, and if I told Tim Fowler over dinner at his house, and if Tim Fowler told the thead...CH would be the first to SUE.

"but I think the underlying perspective of distinguishing the person from the alias persona for reason of on-line safety is reasonable"

I would bet anything that CH knows that people are just as real using the name "honey" as they are using any other name. NOBODY could be so STUPID as to think that a change of name is material to the essence of a person.

I think
the underlying perspective of distinguishing the person from the alias persona for
reason of on-line safety is reasonable and one likely to be endorsed by CH from
what I know of him


It's really nice to find somebody who reads what other people say and understands it.

A skill Solon would do well to try to emulate.
