It's "K-eye". Looks cool that way, if I ever have the urge to become a 
rap-artist, there's my gangsta-name.

You are pretty close. I am doing a biographical thing. I have read 
Ault's book, and its been an influence. I like the way he let Barks's 
voice come through. My book won't be a compilation of DCML messages, but 
they will be my main source. Hence its also a bit of history of DCML.
