And WTF is this bumping law about? How are you supposed to have a debate if you can’t respond to posts? :dubious:

Replying to a thread in earnest is NOT bumping.

In the interest of full disclosure, I don’t think Louis paying the $15 will make us care, either.
Also, Bryan, I think he just called you Dan Rather, though he’d’ve been better off calling you Koppel

It’s eerie, but I suppose in a place as hospitable as the SDMB, which welcomes such a large number of “guests,” it’s inevitable that a lot of them will begin to appear remarkably similar…

Well, there was [this news article](http://www.theonion.com/content/node/38673).
And there were [these movies](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?t=425200) that were unintentionally hysterical.

[QUOTE=LOUIS CYPHERE]
My name actually means “Light-bearer” in some language or other.
One of you might know! 🆒
[/QUOTE]
No. Your name means “famed warrior of no consequence” in bad German and misspelled English. Had you meant an attempt on a clever presentation of the Latin “Lucifer,” you should have tried “Lou Siffer” (or, better, “Lou Kiffehr” or “Lou Chiffehr”), which avoids both the extraneous syllable of Louis as well as the effete final “e” and the wrong initial vowel sound in Cyphere.
Better luck in the future.
