MArk, Mark, Marc.... Yes, way back before the internet and knowing that I
had a more unique spelling of my name I felt safe. Then, the kid across the
street was named Eric Nielsen. At the tender age of 4 I knew I was in
trouble. I hadn't even started to think about it for at least... oh two
years, when starting school I ran into a dave nelson. I had a brother dave.
Well Whole &*+^it batman. Years of playing in symphony and rarely have my
name spelled correctly I got used to it. Then along comes the internet and
people hear one way and spell another and even though I was in Taos, and now
Dallas, TX, I know that Eric Ne..... is bound to get confused with me. Hell
even here in Dallas, one delivery was made to another Eric Nielsen. After a
week he finally realize that ink wasn't his. : ( 

So what's the question?

Mark you're thinking of my 'partner in crime' Eric Neilsen.  You're not the
first or last to get us mixed up.

Years ago before the internet, when I heard there was someone with nearly
the same name as myself doing the same type of alt work as me, I decided we
should definitely meet up on my then yearly trip to the southwest.  We've
stayed connected ever since.

So to answer your question, Eric is in Texas and I'm in Chicago.
