Feeling a bit like this?  It's all too easy for forums to turn into intramural chat. Some forums prefer and foster that mode, and that's fine. However, Any Port wants to offer more open opportunities for real conversation and exchanges of information. Every new member should feel that his or her contributions will be met with respect and attention. So, if you've recently joined and have been looking for a place to jump in, use this thread. You needn't introduce yourself if you don't wish, just let your voice be heard. Please!

It looks like he might have a little juice box. I hope you're keeping it down. No kebab extravaganzas yet?

Mmm ~~ here is a kick-off idea if anyone wants to use it: why do you use the handle you use?
I use mine because from the first time I heard it, I though it sounded like a great name that really suited me.
It is the botanical name for achiote/annato.

I like mine because I like the 'feel' of it and it's short to type!

Mine... I dunno... when I signed up at LP I just couldn't think of anything better. I haven't changed it because I've been using it for years and it is like my second identity.

Spindrift blows off high mountains and sea-waves alike. I love both equally.

I'm new here, as of today. But I already know many of you.
My new name is based on where we live in Mexico. I have less reason to be anonymous now.
