You know, I hope I’m not out of line by posting that… I was just curious myself. I’ve lurked here for so long; it always piques my interest when I see a name change to know who it used to be.

Yeah, well, there’s one way to find out. The forum list doesn’t get updated when name changes go through, so if you find an OP with the new name, the forum list will show the OP as the old name.

It’s nice to know I’m remembered (or at least known ;))

Checking through a recent GQ thread I participated in, I came across an unfamiliar name. I was sure it wasn’t there before. That led me here. **Wilson** ’s correct.

I found it through the [Driving down Main St at 0.9c](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?s=&threadid=161972) thread, where **kanicbird** appears now as the OP. **k2dave** is mentioned later in the thread in the context of being the OP.  
As **Achernar** states, the thread does still show as **k2dave** being the original poster.
