I've seen them. A late friend had one, but it was no surprise because every available wall in his house was covered in bookshelves. He was a noted collector of SF and fantasy, and a good candidate for "Second largest collection of SF in the world after Forrest J. Ackerman".

OK. How did THAT happen????

Look above at post #3.

The quote shows posted by ardeegee, which is wrong.

I quoted ardeegee's post #1 and posted the remark that shows as a quote from ardeegee.

The post that coincides with my avatar on post #3 is not my post, but belongs to Dennis (DMcCunney), even edited by him, yet is next to my avatar posting space.

It's all mixed up!!!!

I'll say. We often hijack threads, but hijacking identities is a whole new mystery.

I'm having an identity crisis. I'm so confused. Am I Dennis, or Blue? I look like Blue, but I sound like Dennis.

Dennis . . . how'd you do that?

alternate explanation : dennis is a moderator, and therefore has the superpower of editing other people's posts. we never ever do this, unless we have to, of course, but it does happen occasionally that someone accidentally clicks "edit" when they intend to click "quote". i would guess that is what happened here.


i'll leave it up to each of you to decide what *really* happened. (i know what i think... )

then it must be your explanation, and the forum software is confused and can't remember who she is posting as.

I think our forum software come-to-life is evolving due to the natural selection of moderators clicking on edit instead of quote.
