That's makes perfect sense to me. I was going to approach it the same way and then decided to just use my name on here. Always felt weird to me being called by a username instead of my actual name. I absolutely read what you write. You have been an excellent source of knowledge, advice, and information for me on AAAC and I'm sure will be here as well!
I hate not using my real name, but also am concerned about privacy / career impact / etc. I stand behind everything I write, but also know that taken out of context, things that I write here - flip or intentionally exaggerated comments, for example - that are fine in the right context could be distorted out of context.
That said, I think about it regularly as it feels "wrong" to me to be using a username and not my real name.
And thank you for your kind comments.
