And thank you for your reasonable reply.

I don't remember anything about this request to use your full name. I 
won't speak for others, but I support the right of people to be known by 
whatever (reasonable, non-offensive) name or names they choose on 
informal mailing lists like this, so long as they give *some* moniker 
that others can refer to them by.

If somebody here wants to be known as "Mr Smith", or "Professor Jones", 
or "Tomato Girl the Boy Wonder" for that matter, then they need only sign 
their posts that way and give that in their From address, and I will use 
it. The pattern "Personal-Name Family-Name" is not the only naming system 
in the world.

(However, I don't promise not to roll my eyes if they choose a silly 
moniker, and I am the final arbitrator as to what counts as silly.)
