They did.  I suspect, although not certain, that maybe they thought this
was a test echo.  My response was a polite way to let them know it was
not.  <g>

Always nice to have new folks.

I think that is a "fake name" which translates to "The Other Guy."  I could
be wrong, but that sysop has been working on his new system and I suspect
he is trying to determine if posts from others make it around the networks.

So I will cut him some slack.  OTOH, it could be someone named Daotha Guy
so, either way, I want them to feel welcome.  :D
