Thanks! :) You can call me any of those, I have at
least 8 to chose from anyway (officially 5, but just
found a new one last week.. im thinking of studying my
family tree btw to check those out)..

Maybe 'Tony' is more confortable to english speakers.

Stand and wave ^^ LOL thanks for the explaining!
hmmm.. since we're at the introduction yet, maybe you
guys might want to share your background? EE =
electric engineering right? or maybe a bit about
yourselves, how you got to know this list.. etc 
Btw.. how is the activity of the list? seems pretty
busy, yet not crowded (which is a good thing in my
opinion)
Im on computer science. Brazilian guy here. Nice to
meet you all :)
