El with-an-underline turns up the following, although I don’t recall ever seeing posts by any of them. El\_chupacabra El\_Conquistador El\_Danger\_Mouse el\_eureka El\_Gordo el\_mono el\_nombre el\_paco el\_pey El\_Spectre el\_teso I’m pretty sure there are a bunch of El without-an-underline posters, but I’m not sure how I could retrieve them with the three-letter limit. ---

All I can think of offhand is that you’d have to try “el \ a” and go down the alphabet. As an old boss of mine used to say about some of my projects: “That’s too much shuffling of the dishes for the victuals involved.” ---

You post so infrequently I never saw your username in the years before I became TriPolar. I also should have searched the name and seen it’s a nickname for people diagnosed with both BD and BPD. I’m far more warped than that 🙂 I first noticed you about a year ago, and then recently someone in GD made a mention that we weren’t the same person. Well I think we’re not anyway, hard to know anything for sure 🙂 TriPolar Hi, I’m **TriPolar** , and **Tripler** did not authorize this message. ---
