Al,

I know that you said "no wories", but still....I want to apologize for getting your name wrong initially. I shold know better than to be typing an email when I am super-tired. Poor awareness skills set in. Nonetheless, I welcome you to this excellent and HONEST organization called TAXI. If you are willing to work hard at your craft and utilize invaluable advice from fellow Taxi affiliates, you can potentially achieve victory with various opportunities that are presented. I view TAXI as GOLD!!!

I wondered whether that whole "Allen" versus "Alain" name thing would come up. You put a smile on my face! :D

Glad that I (or WE) could put a smile on your face today. A genuine and heartfelt certainly a healthy part of one's day.

I too, have to deal with the mispelling-of-name consequence. My name is Robby, but all too often, people spell it as Robbie.

My birth name is Roben, which people tend to spell as Robin.

Welcome Alain.
Success is failure analyzed

Sometimes the truth feels good. Sometimes bad. But it's always good for us.

The world's greatest music was written without the technology we have today.

I, too have problems with my birth name: Lauri. It's Finnish for Larry (my dad's name), and since my mom was Finnish, they named me Lauri. Big problems when I was young, although it's pronounced "Lawry." --- I changed my name in the 1st grade to my second name: John. Problem solved!

BTW, I'm 1/4 Swiss by heritage also!

Welcome to the Forum, Alain!

Hehe, thats good I could use my middle name "Daniel" too, it's easier, but my best friends name is Daniel, so it's not really useful ;)

Thanks, I can't wait to meet all of you guys too...
