Hi, Alexander!  Recently you wrote in a message to Anton Shepelev:

AS>  Congratulations upon capitalisation of your name :-)

ak>  It was the initiative of Tommi's gate, not mine. 


           Ah.  I'd noticed it seemed to happen at some times but not others... maybe depending on where you were posting from.  While I've grown accustomed to seeing your name without capitalization, either or both serve the purpose.  :-)



ak>  Long ago when fidonet was a quiet populous place 
ak>  there were many people with initials AK, and it 
ak>  was confusing to have discussions with them. So
ak>  I modestly had made my initials small. ;)


           Thank you.  That made it a lot easier to keep track of who said what
... especially when multiple quotes were used.

           In those days we also had two or three people here with the initials "AS", one of whom helped clarify such things by adding his middle initial.  And even now there are at least three Fidonet Syops with the initials "ML"....  :-Q
