Sorry, E.M., but you didn't quite read this post properly. I know it's confusing, but there it is.
As for "legion", when Jesus went out into the desert for 40 days and 40 nights, the devil appeared before him to tempt him with all kindsa stuff. When Jesus asked him who he was, he's reply was "My name is legion". I have always loved this answer, and use it when someone asks me my name. I guess it fell flat on this occasion. By the by, my name is (under construction:watch this space).

My real name is Sarah French. and nobody (I don't know if you would, but people have) ask if I'm french, or speak french, or anything. French is a british name.

You must be soooooooooooo sick of people riffing on your name. I extend my sympathies, and apologise on be-half of all those geese that have or will do it.

Not to be a "goose" but do you speak French? If I were you, I would have learned any language BUT French...merely to spite my own nomological fate!

Actually, I don't speak any other languages because I'm not in high school yet and no one else has taught me, but I want to learn lots of languages, including french, as a matter of fact.

This has nothing to do with the topic. But PE, when did you become a forum moderator?

Last week, I believe. Not very long, to be sure. The days blend together at the end of the term, but I was voted the ultimate recognition by the Foreign Press (it matters because it comes from your PEERS!) and I took on the ultimate responsibility...of doing the same thing I was doing before...hanging out in the Forums and engaging in fun chat with all y'all.

Craig Luft is a strong name. It befits a fellow of your magnitude, Buck.
I assumed the mantle of “Megatron” following my triumph in the Rigel Colony Mining War in Sector 2. My previous identity is no more. You may address me as “Lord Megatron” or simply “Megatron”.
I went to school with a guy named Aristotle, but everyone just called him Aris. I hate when people contract names, it's lazy and disrespectful.
