I read the thread title and for the first time in however many years I realized what her name is. 😀 I guess I just never sounded it out as a user name but I did reading it in the title.

Actually, yours is another user name I didn’t get until recently. It just clicked one day. I think I have a tendency to “see” user names and not “hear” them. And there’s probably a bunch of others I’ve missed because of that.

Still not getting it.

(Yeah, probably saw it and understood it, in context of the sketch and when spoken aloud. But now? Thirty years later? zero context? just an old photo? nope, I got nothing!)

Sure, sure, it’s working…something??
