Folks, I've been doing a lot of thinking over the past weekend, and I ultimately decided that there are several good reasons for me to change my handle - well, shorten it really..
#1: It clearly has the possibility to offend. When even those that are great arguers and debaters can't help but to take pot shots at it, I think that's a clue I should be taking.
#2: Most people already call me "Moose" anyways.
#3: I've been around on the board long enough, and I've established myself as being a serious, if not professional, blackjack player, that I no longer need to resort to juvenille, attention grabbing tricks in an effort to seek acceptance.
#4: I've been making some fairly big changes in my life in the past couple of months, including physical ones - I'm making an effort to look less like Mussolini and more like a Moose :) - so this seems like a natural step.
So just an FYI for you all.
M.
