    I have a question for you. You name is Dan but your screen name is Del. Both begin with "D" and each is three letters. Why not just go with Dan for a screen name, specially since you sign your name at the bottom of your post.
    Great question Rudy no.1 Dan is already taken as a username by a very nice gentleman here and no.2 Mathematics was a hobby of mine at one time but I encourage my friends to call me Dan.

    Oh, I didn't know the name was already taken. Makes sense.

    Mathematics as a hobby? That's what my son does for a living.

    What branch of math do you do as a hobby?

    Notice how Rudy says that I am the smartest "woman" he knows.

    Gotta get that gender dig in there, don't you?

    That's fine. I know the only reason you won't give up your beloved flip phone is because you are AFRAID I'll beat you at Scrabble.

    Hey! You left out the comely part.

    I had to qualify it, no sexism involved. The smartest person I know (actually, knew since he is deceased) is Richard Feynman. Absolutely the brightest, most unassuming intellect, ever. I met him many, many, many years ago when I was working at Bell Labs in New Jersey.

    Okay, I'll accept that.

    You're no slouch yourself when it comes to intellect.
