What kind of f*cked up idea is this? How is changing your name going to change whether or not you remember the people you meet? You are adding an unnecessary layer of confusion in your mind..which isn't too surprising I guess. |

St. Louis is a school not a hospital.
I've used different names for different situations and periods of my life so I can identify when I knew the person. Unforuntely common usage of bill was retired before I entered St. Louis Adult Learning Centres. Although I'm not going to give too much of my personal information, Bill was never used at St. Louis.
I personally think Moral not only is lying, but actually doesn't know anyone that knew me at St. Louis.
The guy is a total faced liar, and his credibility went from "not liking me" to some tard faced liar. |
What name did you go by at St. Louis? |

Doesn't no is a double negative, which would make it a positive. Is this a subliminal admission that Moral Hazard does know someone?
Also, isn't it possible that they could have regarded you as Bill? it's a fairly common substitution. |

I meet a lot of people and I'm not good with remembering names or faces. Different names are contextual for me.

Doesn't add to the confusion it actually helps with at what level I am use to communicating with the person, and what types of situations they may know me from.
I have totally different ways for example of interacting with people who know me as Bill, Will or Billy. For example. I just know them from different settings, and for the most part I've been at different phases of interaction for each one. This isn't all the names I've used in my life, but it serves as an example.
It is useful try it if you change your time frame. It helps seperate different aspects of your life. |

It wasn't Bill to say the least. I'd rather not give out personal information beyond that point, as there are a handful of people on this website that arn't responsible for me to lend them personal information that otherwise isn't easily accessable. |

So, I was just talking to my contact at the adult learning centre Will went to. All I had to do was show her the photos from the resume and she said "oh God! Bill Ashley, nutyer then a fruitcake.". So there's our answer, he really is bat insane. |
:haha: :stongue: :haha: :stongue:

I'm willing to bet money that it was Billy, Will or William, all of which Bill can be derived from. It was something like that, wasn't it? After all, you can't apply at a school like that without giving your proper name, so they must've called you something similar. ;) |

It is highly doubtful. While I agree someone could use a dimorphism, it is not too probable if you only go by one name and it sounds nothing like it. If he gave a name and I could confirm I actually knew the person I might consider it, but fact is, the way he has phrased it, and using a name I didn't use, has me more doubtful.
Situation is moot regardless. Personally I don't trust Moral_Hazard enough to actually trust what he is saying given the alternate name usage. |

| I know you are inherently trust-worthy moral and am not at all surprised that other groups find William to be a lunatic. |

just because you didn't go by "bill ashley" in school doesn't mean people didn't refer to you as that anyways. maybe even behind your back. who knows.
