Scott - we have to sign up with our e-mail address to get mail. Some of us, for many reasons, don't want to use our names in our addresses, so we make one up. Is this what you mean by an alias? I do use my own name when I correspond. Regards, Joan Norstedt On Nov 20, 2006, at 5:40 PM, [email protected] wrote: Hi, why do people get do use a alias names on this site. That's not far to some of the people. I belong to Clan MacKay USA. They do not allow alias. One alias is Genferrett2, I guess genferrett one got caught. On another note Queen Elizabeth 2 would be a bad choice to come to Plymouth's 400th Anniversary. They came to America, to get away from their hypocrisy. Scott
