It appears that **Anthracite** has changed her username to **Una Persson**. I searched for a thread announcing (or explaining) the change but have not yet found one.

I read about it on her message board yesterday evening. Good on you for starting that ATMB thread, **Algernon** … she’s replied to it now, as you know.

That is true, but the username was changed only once 🙂

In [this thread](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?s=&threadid=215069), **Denis** has just announced his name change from **P.T. Smegma**. In my opinion, that’s a good name change. 🙂

I saw “FlyingBurritoBro” and inexplicably got “Inna-godda-da-vida” in my head.

I knew that (and have even met the lovely **fierra** ); the insinuation was supposed to be part of the (inapprpriate) humor. Ah well, ya can’t win 'em all…

Yeah, seems my “humor meter” has been malfunctioning badly the last week and a half. (but it’s getting better, especially when I’m with my friends!)

I initially registered as **Frank the Lost Ramone** a couple of months before the Winter of our Missed Content. All my threads were lost (not that any of them were intersting) and trying to re-register it kept cutting the name short. So I decided to use the name I use for online gaming and laser tag.

In [this thread](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?s=&threadid=216028), **Narrad** ’s announced his name change to **Jervoise**.

I like the new name… it sounds suitably quirky. 😃

**Kuroko** is now **Hot Buttered Toast** , mainly because it sounds way more impressive, or at least as impressive as a hot piece of toast with butter on it can sound.

Mmm, toast.
