I just found out that there is a Who\_me? [http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?s=&postid=2514374#post2514374](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?s=&postid=2514374#post2514374) What can I do to change my name? If I have to re-register it’s no biggie, I’m only involved in one thread so far. ---

DO NOT re-register – that’s verboten around here. E-mail [tubadiva@aol.com](mailto:tubadiva@aol.com) and ask her nicely to change your name for you. ---

Welcome to the boards, ex-who me? What is your new username ? Must say it’s a kind gesture on your part to volunteer for a name change. ---
