@tptacek:

That is the second time I have called you Patrick... I have no idea why! I apologize.

My whole life everyone has called me Steve, my name is Sam....

Anyway - I dont know why I see your username and equate it with Patrick. How do I reset mental variables?

What works for me is closing the screen, putting some headphones on, turning on some music, and going for a walk.

I do the same thing! Patrick and tptacek have a lot of the same letters in the same order (p-t-c-k)... maybe that's why?
