Dang.  The new guy scores on me.  And you're a Good writer too, btw.  I usta
work in tech support for a while, in my hometown.  Mary and I welcome you to
the tech support contingent of the MoQ.

We feel at home here, because in my view, the MoQ is all about the tech
support of life.

How would I know if I were Mary's male side? Couldn't she hide that

I think you do great.  Only a human knows so clearly when he's confused.  My
allusion to Mary had to do with a post a while back where she said she
wanted to rejoin as a guy and see what kind of reaction she got.

I know where she's coming from.  I myself tried being a woman for a short
while.  Carrie Lopez, but it didn't last long.  I have a hard enough time
thinking my thoughts, much less somebody else's.  You'd have to be some kind
of crazy genius to be able to keep up more than one personality on MD for
long.

Although I did get an interesting feedback, off-list, from a newbie avatar
that I suspect was one of Ron's.  Was that true Ron?  Did you run that Frank
guy for a while?


Great story,  btw.  Your rotund janitor in the ceiling, with a bit, frozen
mouse now dwells in the cracks of my brain.

He's quite comfortable there.
