Even better you get paid for telling other people what they're doing wrong

Well, the person's real but it's just a made up name, see?

marc, or anyone else for that matter: if U did choose a username in haste and wish to alter it to your 'normal' ID let me know by PM and I'll update it.
The change will alter the ID on all your past posts retrospectively.

Super noodles - love 'em and if you want a bit of variety chuck in a tin of sweetcorn!
p.s. I'm Annaliese - but I wanted a nickname to reflect my love of the mountains - summer and winter!

Surely in your line of work being a notoriously bad typist is a bit of a liability!
|
|
|
|
|
|
As long as I consistently type badly, it doesn;t matter as then all the variables have the same name: any code I type badly is caught by the compiler!
|
|
|
|
|
You know it makes sense.
|
Pah, when I learn to program, you didn't have variables, you had registers! And a compiler? I had to wake up in't'morning and run the assembler. It would take 200 lines of code to display your name on the screen. And we had to save everything to tape.
And eat coal.

Assembler? Tape? Screen? You were lucky!
I had to get up in 't middle o't night before I'd been to bed, enter bootstrapping code on't front panel by hand in't machine code one byte at a time, program using a screwdriver and punched cards, and I were lucky if an answer came out before I went home!

Hmmmm, guess you might be talking computery speak now..... Totally lost, all I know is that I struggled at my keyboard for 3 hours this morning so absorbed in work that I didn't remember to save it. Doh. Then those nice people at Microsoft let me down and Word crashed. Time to start again. My fault I know but still not happy.

There is a an autosave facility on Word so it saves every x number of minutes. You set the interval. It then gives you the option of recovering after a crash (or you can manually do it). Don't have it on this machine, so can't give detailed instructions on where it is.
Should be on by default, but.....

Well I have used my screen name on a number of different Forum sites. A mixture of my two first names, and my number one sport.
BTW D G Orf told me about this site, was going to sign on the SCGB but they closed it before I had the chance

I'm just me - I dont really understand all this technical stuff - so it didnt occur to me you could be someone else on the computer - mind you - I think I'm wishing I wasnt me - I started the petition about the ski club decision ages ago - I'd only done a few posts at that point but was soooo mad. I didnt really think about it - and now every time I pop over there I see my name at the top - coz no one else is saying anything. I suddenly feel very "exposed". - and then I did it again.... and made someone very, very cross so they actually had to get it moderated... ooops
Anyway - this is a horrid thread - it is taking away all that grey swirling mystery....
U- brain - you cant possibly be GRAHAM - I have a mental picture of a strange and mysterious character - a kind of skiing superhero -
And now I find you are ............ Graham - ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
(ps no offence - Grahams a very nice name!)

I was Mark Woods in another life, but wasn't really sure what this forum was when I set up my user name. When I discovered that it was all of the refugees from 'over there' I felt a tad embarassed about not using my real name. However, I have now created this exciting alter-ego !

Johnboy is of course John Lynn. Didn't really mean to call myself johnboy, it just happened when I registered.

Night johnboy, if you want to change it then tell admin (use a personal message) and he'll be happy to oblige.

Used to use my "pretend" name on SCGB i.e. Helen Pace...here I'm using a short form of my "real" name which is Homp Homp Helen Melon Lurkin Gherkin Oooh Oooh Oooh Head.....as I said when I first arrived - don't even ask!! The origins are lost in the mists of time.....

homphomp, unusual to combine the conception with the baptism isn't it?

Never felt the need to hide my real name. Occasionally I change my email address, to prevent spam buildup. At the moment it's scream, after my skis.

I could tell you, but then I'd have to kill you.
But let it be known that I am NOT a snowboarder.

Me too, but I'd take my mates with me.
Against their will if I had to ("mad cackle" fades to silence)

And pay off their mortgages, set the kids up, stand the beer and food for as long as the money held out, then back to work.
Just need a few numbers up this weekend.
