Well, it has come to my attention that some people think DiscoStu and I are the same person. I didn't think this would need clarifying but it obviously does. I am not DiscoStu. While I revere the Disco Stu from the Simpsons, from what I've read of this DiscoStu, he's a troll.

Some people have noted, "Well it just sounds like you." Grand. I may be a jerk at times, I may be opinionated and I may be argumentative, but I've always signed My Name to my posts -- good or bad.

Another bit of supposed evidence is that DiscoStu and I have cooresponding "last here" times. Well, every web browser I have defaults to www.perlmonks.org, and with the cookie I'm automagically logged in. So my last here time is constantly changing.

Again, I didn't think this needed clarification, but to anyone who thinks I'm DiscoStu: I am not DiscoStu. One of things that bugs me is that I wasn't ever asked. Nobody /msg'd me to ask or anything of the such. I came across a reference to it in a ChatterBox conversation.

Here endeth the bitching...
