Other people use it in arw, to degrade me, or to try and >>use this name as a power lever, or to try and "put me in my place." "[Doc Jeff]" : > Forgive me, please, but could you expand on this "working >name" concept? my guess is that it pertains to magic-work, usually the name referred to as what is used within the Neopagan, Magical, or New Age community, rather than a street-name. some folks have lives that divide up names based on activities and whether it interacts with civil authorities. sometimes these are names accepted/given/taken in initiation ceremonies, as when Gardnerian Wiccans issue degrees based on performance and reliability. blessed be! lorax666
