LOL.  In my outlook pane, it shows as being from Andy Lacey, I only see
Andrew in the text below.

My mom calls me Andrew too.  The irony for me is that my Dad wanted to
call me Andy, and she wanted to call me Drew, so they settled on Andrew,
and now that I go by Drew, she can't stand it...go figure.

;)

And in case anyone thinks I've come over all formal the webmail client I
have to use from work insists on calling me Andrew and I can't see how
to
alter it. So it's just webmail and my mother who call me that!
