Why it's my alternative self, of course.

Actually, for some strange reason, this list and only this list "sees"
my "name" as "rosebud" and not as Darryl Baird. It is my login for my
service provider. I tried to change the settings in Netscape, but the
server didn't recognize me then...which was certainly worse.

So, rosebud is only a psuedonym, but it also know in American film-lore
as the name of the sled of the main character in Citizen Kane and also
his last dying words. Some "get it" immediately, most ask me why I use
that particular word as a login. But that's a longer story and way off
topic.

Cheers.

Later.
