I just noticed the handle of **Mr. Slant**. Myself, I used to be The Gaspode. And there’s **Lobsang** , **PerditaX** , and who? How many of us have a screen name taken from the DW? (CS Mods - this might belong in MPSIMS, but since I’m not a \*habitué \* of that forum, and it does tie in with CS, I put it here. Feel free to move.) ---
