On this, the occasion of E2K, I have decided to rend the veil of mystery that some people say surrounds me. I can’t promise I’ll answer _all_ questions. After all, I do have a few secrets to keep to myself. And I may not get back to your questions for a day or so, given the limited amount of time I have. But go ahead. Ask me anything.

Rum and coke. I don’t drink that often, though, so one usually gets me good and woozy.

When will vB code be updated to include [sub]sub[/sub] and [sup]sup[/sup]?

How does one do multiple quotes in a reply?

(I won’t do ‘Hi Opal!’ since I read in the Pit that someone’s tired of it!:D)

I’ve got lots more questions. Just can’t think of them right now. I’ll be back.

Less than exciting white jeans. Barefoot, and no shirt.

You really should ask me that question early Sunday morning. 😉

Okay - why haven’t you posted to Biotop’s latest puzzle? I’ve been working on it - I figure I have until Saturday night before I have to admit defeat - and I keep hoping you or Peregrine or _someone_ will post something helpful. I don’t want the answer exactly - just a little hint perhaps, a pointer. But no - no one’s added anything. (I hate these story problems, but don’t tell Bio.)

Because I sincerely don’t have a clue. I hate the “story” puzzles too. So far, I haven’t been able to get a one of them.

Well, it depends. Some people like to lick them fast. Myself, I like to lick them nice and slow, taking my time around the edges, reveling in the taste until the rich, creamy center is revealed and …

… what was the question again?

I noticed the name Lloyd starts with 2 'L’s. This seemed strange to me. Why does it start with two 'L’s, it’s not a Spanish name, is it?
