OK, I can’t figure it out and it’s pissing me off. I don’t get it. I can get to the title page but then all I see are a bunch of links to personal searches and eBay. What gives? So I’m at [http://www.geocities.com/sdpeoplepages/](http://www.geocities.com/sdpeoplepages/) Then what do I do? ---

About 1/4 of the way down that page is a heading: **Find Individuals Here:** Under that is a scroll down list that says -Look By Name- Click on that and highlight the name of the poster you want to see and then click to GO! button to the right, or go down further and click on one of the gathering photos. ---

> [@](#): > > \*Originally posted by pluto \* > I have a question but it’s kind of self-directed: Why didn’t I know **Brachyrhynchos** was a woman? I don’t think she was doing a **TVeblen** and deliberately obscuring her gender. (Well, wouldn’t you, if you had a beard?) I had a very firmly established male mental image, which, having seen her photo, was not only wrong but WAY wrong, as she is a very attractive woman. ( **Veb** is also a nice looking woman. The beard is virtual.) I’m going to have to review a few threads to see where I went astray. > > Also, while I’m on the subject: **Brachy** – can you translate your username for me. Referencing my limited Greek vocabulary I come up with “Fast Nose”. I suspect that’s not right. _blush_ Thank you, pluto. No, I wasn’t obscuring my gender on purpose, but I chose the species name for the American Crow as my handle (right on, Odieman!). _brachy rhynchos_ means “bristle beak” and refers to the corvid (crows, magpies, jays, ravens) of having their nostrils covered by stiff hairs. My own nostrils are fairly hair-free but I took this username because I dig crows and like the pronunciation (brachy rhyming with tachy + rinkos).
