Mike -

As I’ve stated in my last 3830 submission for NAQP I don’t mind using my
name. I’m just amazed that people have difficulty copying three letters.

But as time goes on people will recognize me.

No, I won’t bother Stu with changes to the SCP for one or two runs of Naqp.
It’s not a contest I do seriously anyway.
