So Zenith Uzbeckistan is the avatar you have chosen to interact with 
folks on this forum. Unless of course you are another of Arlo's 
incarnations sent in to
confuse us. As though we had a confusion shortage...

Great. Fan the flames of paranoia, Krimel. Pretty soon Marsha will be 
thinking we are all one person toying with her. Maybe I should have 
my "Horse" personae "set things straight" so we can all be happy with 
the illusion once again. :-)

Interestingly, this demonstrates two things. The value for long-term 
relationships continuity over time and context brings us, and how the 
viability of those relationships become threatened when those 
illusions are challenged. And the simple acceptance we have to make, 
all the time, to accept "as real" the avatars we encounter, because 
if we spent so much time chasing ghosts of some "reality" behind 
these avatars, we could easily slip into a paranoiac dream world 
where we can never "be sure" of anything, where we would come to 
think of ourselves as Trumans in big television shows, where everyone 
around us are actors pretending to be this or that, I mean we can 
never really know for sure, can we? Much better just to accept the 
avatars we encounter as "as real as its going to get" and be done with it.
