It used to be that one could change one's screen-name if one wished.

Now one can change his screen-name only with the permission of the Authorities.

It's a good rule, and has good and valid reasons for being a rule.

You have to settle on a screen name by 25th March otherwise you are stuck with the one you have.  If you want to ditch the 'Sam' now's your opportunity

How do you go about doing that?

Never knew it was that easy, or I would have done it earlier.  Thanks.

Are we going to have something in place to be able to identify people? I'm getting old and set in my ways. It's not nice to mess with old folks. I get thrown when I see a new screen name and can't place the writing style. :-)

No, my friends, there’s only one really progressive idea. And that is the idea of legally limiting the power of the government. That one genuinely liberal, genuinely progressive idea — the Why in 1776, the How in 1787 — is what needs to be conserved. We need to conserve that fundamentally liberal idea. That is why we are conservatives. --Bill Whittle

We do need a thread to make the changes public.  I don't have anything to hide, just tired of the name.  Want to show my southern roots.
