Well, thanks for the compliment! I posted such a post because I don't really see the big deal in choosing what may be somebody's actual name for a username. What if I had chosen 'WillFerrell' for my username? Would he suddenly come under the scrutiny of the DEA?

Or maybe he wants to rule out say an employer googleing his name and finding he's a grower and thinking we'd rather not hire him, as often happens these days just for facebook comments and such, or even just friends or family. Heck, I had a flatmate decide to google me upon moving in, that would have proven awkward. It's simply covering the bases.

I apologize though, I did come off rather strong, alcohol withdrawal and me are not getting on too well at present alas.

No need to apologize. I was being slightly sarcastic. And you do make a point. Alcohol withdrawal? Is that a new years' resolution?

Haha! Yeah, I know what you mean. I figure since this is my first grow, I shouldn't expect super results; Especially since I'm using T5's and bagseed. Just hope they produce something.

Since about the 10th of december actually. Drank almost every day prior to that, for 8 years, rather figured i needed to change my life. Went T-total just to see if i could, which actually worked, although am often an emotional wreck unfortunately. But tonight i have decided to buy a few bottles of beer to congratulate myself. t-total is no way to live, think that i am going to look at trying to make it a once a fortnight thing, something like that. Probably a better lesson in self-discipline to do it that way than simply cut it out completely. (besides, how can i eat seafood and not have some white wine with it!)

Nothing wrong with having a drink now and then, if you can keep it at that. For some people it's easier said than done. I haven't had a drink for about two years. Good luck, and enjoy your beers!
