Bill,

Well Rudy, I still don't get it. It sure seems to me if I sign as Ernest
Hemingway, it's implying I think I'm Ernest Hemingway.

I'm afraid that that "implies that" is your own projection of what you
think other people think. I for one never assumed our Mark Twain here
was Samuel Langhorne Clemens. For starters, the former one lives, and
the latter one died over a century ago.

But as I already mentioned, you are inconsistent: You have a problem with
someone sharing the Mark Twain name, but at the same time you do not seem
to have any with all those Bills, Joes and Sues doing the same. Somehow
you think that that is different, and I on my part do not
understand that I'm afraid.

We have lots of Bills, Joes, and Sues. We only have one Ernest Hemingway
(AFAIK). I don't see the inconsistency.
