fwiw--I always think initials for handles are a really bad idea. Nothing is more impersonal than a string of meaningless letters. Sure, to those who've read you before, they may remember what they represent. But for anybody new they will just be that--meaningless letters. It strips away all personality from your handle (and yours in particular has a lot of personality). Which brand name just sounds intuitively friendlier and more like a company you wouldn't mind working for--Apple or IBM? Verizon or AT&T? (BTW--almost no major company gets to the big leagues with an abbreviated name. It's always International Business Machines that later becomes IBM. Kentucky Fried Chicken that becomes KFC. etc) HispanicCausingPanic is an awesome handle. It communicates ethnicity and personality all at once. HCP? What is that? Just look at some of the best handles on here: barfo--communicates that he doesn't take himself too seriously. Fits, doesn't it? EdO--tells you that he's pretty straight forward. He is what he is. Minstrel--sounds like a guy with a lot of different interests and an interest in a variety of music. Do you think any of those guys would be well-advised to hack out those awesome handles and use a three letter acronym? I don't. Now look at ABM--a really cool, smart poster. Good natured and easy-going. So why did he decide to go with Ant-Ballistic Missile as his handle? TalkHard or Maris could've done that (in a rare cerebral moment), but ABM? I always found that an unfortunate coincidence. (I realize he was originally Atlanta Blazer Man. IMO, he made the same mistake you're about to.) You've got one of the best handles on here. Why ruin a good thing? You weren't asking for advice. But then what do you expect from a mook like me?
