admitting it is the first step...
I posted a survey bulletin on my space and one of the questions was what your display name (sypha belnades) means.
MB: "Sypha Belnades is a sorceress from Konami's Castlevania series. She appears as a playable character in Castlevania III: Dracula's Curse, which was published on the NES in 1990."
Rob: "don't you mean she first appeared in 悪魔城伝説 (akamajou densetsu) for the famicom in 1989?"
MB: "NO! IN 悪魔城伝説 (akamajou densetsu), HER NAME WAS URATA AND NOT SYPHA BELNADES!"
...and then it hit me - that was the geekiest thing I have ever said.
