I did not really learn how to deal with it until my college years when a bunch of my buddies yelled 'penis' from the back of a chemistry class composed of about 500 students. I usually sat up front so this time I turned around stood up on my seat faced them and yelled back the word 'jealous'. After that the teasing seemed to stop to my dismay .... I had started liking the name by then :) It's my real name :) Greg _______________________________________________ CentOS mailing list CentOS@xxxxxxxxxx http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos
