When my (honorary) nephews were about that age, they used to give me words to “say in a fancy way” You can guess their most common request. “Flatulence” got a good response, bur “flatus” slayed them every time. ---

His profile card gives his name as Dale Sams. I believe there was a poster by that name on the old board. ---

There’s several posters with"2" on their username since the move didn’t go smoothly for everyone. With Tuba gone, I don’t know if there’s anyone to merge accounts anyway. ---

> [@running\_coach](#): > > There’s several posters with"2" on their username since the move didn’t go smoothly for everyone Yes, a few people did that, and it’s transparent who they are, and obvious that it’ll get fixed someday. Dale Sams is a whole other case. Oh, well, I figured it was an administrative thing that a mod couldn’t handle, but thought I’d ask. ---

I figure it’s semi-transparent since his original name in on his profile. Maybe once settled, there will be an announcement to get everyone merged with old accounts.
