I have a co-worker named Osama. You are saying that if he registered here, he should not use his real name? Asshole.

Besides, how do you know it’s supposed to be “Usama”. Maybe it’s initials, for USA Matthew Arnold, or Ulysses Sam Adams, or something?

Perhaps it is merely an acronym for the United States Academy of Model Aeronautics?

Or just maybe, thousands of other people in the world have the same first name as an infamous terrorist?

**grienspace** , I’m not trying to dump on you here, but you said it yourself – the new guy/gal hasn’t posted yet. Suppose you were new here, your first name was Adolf, and you decided to make that your user name. How would you feel if someone immediately posted “FUCK YOU YOU FUCKING NAZI” before you could even make your first post?

This is the most preemptive of all preemptive pittings I’ve ever seen in my life.

**grienspace** really should think about changing his sig:

\*I know in my heart that man is good.  
That what is right will always eventually triumph.  
And there’s purpose and worth to each and every life. \*

Apparently it’s a very common name in the Muslim world. My co-worker is from the Sudan. (He’s out sick today or I’d ask him to be sure.)

Well, unless this turns out to be true, of course. 🙂

That’s strange, when I saw the thread title, I thought it was about the Amercian Medical Association. I’ve sometimes seen is as US AMA to distinguish it from the Aussie AMA. So this isn’t a healthcare rant.

The OP is being a huge ass!
