Impossible to know sender info

[Linux for blind general discussion]

That's a point.  I think I'm the only Al here at the moment, but that 
was never my thinking.  I always sign my first name to messages, but 
except for here, those message should include my name in the "from" 
field.  I think Kyle, Samuel, and Karen, among others, do the same 
here.  As with paper letters of the old days, I tend to use my full name 
when I need to be more formal, or when writing to a stranger about 
something.

Although I appreciate the fact that the messages are signed, I'd like to point out that first names are hardly unique.  So, one could easily get confused as to _which_ "Al" was sending the message.  So, I always try to include my last name, as well.
