Name change

[Thomas]

Hey all,

I've grown tired of the "foodie" handle.

Am going to change to my real name. Don't know how to do it yet, but will find out.

[Thomas]

Well,

it can't be done through the Profile change. So, I'll need Alex to tell me what to do.

Alex?

We won't know you!

Different subject - heads up on a good article on Bloomberg this morning about indigenous Italian grapes. Thought of you and your writings immediately.

[Thomas]

Thanks, I didn't know about the Bloomberg article.

Read it. Interesting that our store, is-wine, was selling many of these wines years ago.

In fact, Lagrein is among my favorite Italian reds. But I'm one of those who never cottoned to Lacrima di Morro d’Alba; something to do with its fruit character, although we sold a good volume of it at the store.

Lombardia's Ruche is truly hard to find, even in Italy. I have not tasted Pelaverga, knowingly. I might have when last in Lombardia, but so many times the house wine remains unidentified.

Oliver McCrum, mentioned in the article, as IK already knows, is quite a knowledgeable fellow in Italian wine. He'd make a great addition to this forum.

I can check with Jackie about a name change. Personally I love Foodie. Perhaps a transition name like Thomas (Foodie) until all are aware? Its got to be do-able...

[Thomas]

Foodie is becoming passe. I like to think that I am much more than that [img]http://www.wines.com/ubb/wink.gif[/img]
