I noticed today that frequent forum poster Han Peters is now using the handle Han instead of Hannie.

Han: If you think that you're going to get more respect by losing the dimmunitive suffix... well... I don't know, I respected you anyways :)

I take it his BBO handle changed too? Cool.

I still post under pclayton even though I'm usually "phil" over at BBO.

I want to keep credit for my 6,700 some-odd screeds :).

I noticed that Han still receives credit for all of his past posts.

Likely due to the preponderance of consonant verticality in your nick..... :P

You don't like CHANGE? Can't we keep politics in the other thread, please?

i'll take some blame for this one.

Han just seemed so unhappy with "Hannie" as his nick, so i suggested he have the surgery.

I followed my idol Phil.

Edit: My Chilean friend tells me that my change from hannie to han is malisimo. I'm not sure what that means but I'll take it as a compliment.

I'm pretty sure they said Ni.

I somehow think he was being sarcastic. The first line gave it away...
