It's good to know they check their sources.

So he didn't think Aaron was a lunatic? Aaron, what have you been
eating lately, sedatives? :D

Aaron "Lunatic" Seigo - has a nice ring to it... Now he's
president-off, it might fit? Or is it still too informal for an
ex-president? We could ask Clinton if he'd be happy with Bill "sigar"
Clinton - if that's OK with him, lunatic should be fine with Seigo.
Hmmm. Maybe Aaron "Random Guy" Seigo. Nah, doesn't sound as
interesting as lunatic...

(apologies for my mind, it tends to wander off after a few beers)
