I've also read it many times. I wanted the username isherwood but trying to reserve it tells me it's taken. When I go to the page it tells me there is no such user.

Sad times.

Unfortunately, that's a genuine (yet inactive) user, but with capitalization.

If you like, send them a PM with me cc'd, asking if they'd relinquish it. That's about the best I can do.

HOLY SHIT THIS IS ACTUALLY MY USERNAME!

this is amouseinmyhouse. Apparently I signed up 555 days ago, used the site for two days, then forgot about it. I couldn't log in because of the capitalization.

Thanks hubski. I'm way more excited about this than I should be.

I read the first chapter of "Earth Abides" this morning, and was enlightened.

Oh man, you're in for a treat.

I'm hoping you sent yourself an email and then sat there, jaw agape, for at least 5 seconds.

Better, I looked at the comment history about emotion and transactional analysis and thought "That's crazy, this is something I would say."

This is my new favorite thread.

And then you badged your own content and the universe collapsed.

This is really funny and I'm glad it worked out in the end.

LOL. Glad to hear it, Isherwood.
