 It's spelled "moniker". Moniker! MONIKER! MONIKERMONIKERMONIKER!

 Maybe we should all be constructive about this, and form a support group
 for non-English majors. Count me in. :-)

Sorry, but I tried with moniker(monikermonikermoniker). But my spellchecker
didn't have the word in its database and the OED was all the way downstairs
and besides, it was really just a typing error; these QWERTY keyboards take
some time to get used to and just look how close together they put the keys
for the letters "e" and "o" !  They might as well have put both letters on the
same key!

As for porn on the Vanagon list, I have noticed a drastic *drop* in "XXX" spam
since I signed on. I've been thankful, yes, but I've also been puzzled by this
turn. I complained to AOL months ago, to no avail (except a free month of
service for my troubles), but hooking up with Vanagon.com has really cleaned
up my mailbox (and really filled up my mailbox...). It would be sort of
tempting to spam the porn spammers with an endless thread mulling over the
pros and cons of daytime running lights---DRLs!!!).
