Non fa niente, as we used to say in Italy, or, as Bill Shakespeare would say "a rose by any other name would smell as sweet "

I've also been known to use different aliases on different sites, my most common one being "ex4thhussar", so I know the problem.

The important thing is that you have arrived on a first class site and I look forward to seeing further postings from you.

Ciao !
