I guess that clears it up...?

So...to the point...

Why do people post or write an article using a "phantom" name or a "ghost" name?

Advice, commentary, critique...whatever...from a "phantom" or a "ghost" is just so much gobbledygook if I don't know from whence it came.

Maybe it's just me...

Smoke was my nickname many years ago. MANY years ago. It was a cool nickname and one very befitting. I did outgrow the "smoke" but never outgrew the nickname. I use it at Bnut today. I did post under this name for a while here in 2004 but decided that I was better known as bonsaial for the best part of ten years.

It's too bad that there have been so many that have ruined information on the web. I feel that all information should be accompanied by pictures. A strict photo policy will make the web a good place in a short time. There is never a problem like this with information at IBC. That first picture supplied with the words tells the story in a hurry. Jim Lewis does a very fine job of moving the lessor to the appropriate forum.
