Interestingly enough, George. After once writing your name sans C you rebuked both me and another lounge member for this omission while at the same time wrote my name as, Gibbons.
If in this world we can expect very little we all deserve the respect of having our names spelled correctly - I'm sure you must agree.

Bruce, I couldn't agree more. If I did misspell your last name at one point, I offer my apologies.

With regard to my last name, people leaving out the "c" out has been a problem my entire life.

George, I used "ugly" to give you a taste of your own medicine. "Ugly" is an ugly word!

Same hear, but with the.....ons spelling. Mostly I'm too weary of it now to fight back any more..

After your understandable spelling correction of your name just now, I only wanted to let you know that misspelling names is fairly common and while this can be irritating, there seems little we can do about it. I mostly now let it ride.
