Aha. Thanks. Ignore my email response.

I shudder to think how many people are going to get it wrong when either Alan Hirsch or I kick the bucket.

[billeyler]

You have different names. Richard Tuck is spelled Richard Tuck.

*I* wouldn't get it wrong!

[cjsmith]

This. Exactly. I, too, had a bit of a WTF?! moment when I was reading.

[allanh]

I can only imagine the confusion when either Alan Hirsch or I kick the bucket...and our names are spelled differently, yet we're ALWAYS being mistaken for each other.

Our affectionate nickname for each other is "My Doppleganger". "Dopps" for short if we're feeling especially chummy.

[cjsmith]

Well, yeah, but as billeyler said, at least your names are DIFFERENT.

Eh well. Hopefully that issue won't arise for decades and decades yet.

[allanh]

I have a 50% chance of not being in a position to care when it eventually arises.

[cjsmith]

True enough! 8-)
