I'll admit that sometimes I read a post from NickShepDem or Akno and think it's the other one.

John Dibble and Bacon King all the time.  You and KEmperor quite often, but he doesn't really post any more.  Colin Wixted and Supersoulty.  Alcon and Jesus.

It's pretty much all to do with people having the same avatars for me.  I realize that there are far more 'R-PA's than just Colin and Super, but for some reason those two are the only ones I get mixed up.

ILV and BRTD thanks to the avatar.  Usually I'm shocked at what I'm reading for a second until I notice the name.

Yea, posters with the same avatar, I get confused. The only exception is the D-PA's. Cynic and Flyers just have quite different posting styles, I guess.

I've actually looked at some of Dibble's post, and went "Wait.. I didn't say that.. OH! it's Dibble." I've been thinking for a while that I may shift over to I-GA, just to end the confusion.

You probably wont believe me, but when I first saw this thread, I immediately thought I would be the first mentioned.

That's pretty much the reason why I switched to the Switzerland avatar so as to avoid confusion. I guess me and Super sound alot alike when we post.

Why is that?

I never confuse you with anybody else, Nick.  Probably because we're friends.  You're on my list of people whose posts and topics I make it a point to read, and I never confuse the people on that list.

I also have a list of people whose topics and posts I generally make it a point not to read, and I rarely confuse those either.

With the group in the middle, I sometimes confuse people with similar names.  For some reason, I confuse the opinions of Ebowed and Frodo sometimes.  I tend to think of them together for some reason.  But for the most part, I don't confuse posters with each other.

I could see how it would be possible to confuse me with Frodo/Maverick.  Our positions on the issues are nearly identical and we're both from Virginia.

I should think you'd want to keep the "silly populists" out of the Republican Party.

Anyway, I'm actually not exactly the reincarnation of William Jennings Bryan.  I understand the benefits of free trade, and I believe that it many cases it can be a good thing for the economy.  However, a completely laissez-faire economy would see the emergence of a few oligopolies and conglomerates that pretty much control everything.  Completely unfettered free trade would also be disastrous to thousands of American workers and small businesses.  So there must be some government control in the economy, but obviously not complete control, because that would greatly inhibit its growth.

politics makes strange bedfellows.

ive no problem with silly populists being republican....so long as they vote for the normal people too (ie lincoln chafee, chris shays, etc)

I used to get Kemp and Berger confused at times.  Don't know why, but I did.

I confused myself with the other Mark Warner 08, because i didnīt know that already one existed, so now i chose another name, Harry Haller, a caracter from the book "Steppenwolf" by Hermann Hesse, one of my most favorite authors.

How is that possible?  I can see people getting me confused with Virginian87...but Ebowed?
