Here's a suggestion since you seem persistently bound and determined to bring about your moniker's demise: go to Yahoo, Hotmail, Gmail or wherever and create a TEMPORARY new email address. Use that email address to create a new user profile. Once created, you can then change the email address via your profile page back to your old one if you prefer. If GW complains that that email address is in use, you may have to create yet another temporary email address to act as a placeholder for your old user name. Good Luck. GW seems glitch-y these days. (Keep the alternate email address to use when you want some measure of anonymity on the Web or to avoid possible Spam sign-up.) New Year = New Name??? : D

So sorry for your loss. I lost my best friend "Rudy" a 12 year old Golden Retreiver to cancer 4 years ago,but I will always be Rudy625 till I cross the rainbow bridge to be with him again.Keep your chin up,it never goes away,but it does get better with time. Dan

Hi Eileen, As to username...I don't think you can change them once chosen...though you could change your zone (which follows your username) to something like: eileen_nv Now In Central FLA Zone 9 As for the tomotoes...I have Cherokee Purples ripening now. Tiny Lemon Drops have been fruiting since November. Both are heirloom varieties. Actually, pretty much any tomato you want to grow in Florida will do well. And don't let the Month of the Year stop you. As with this year, we've only had frost 2 times...very lightly...so the growing season has not been interrupted. The only time I can't garden real well is July - September. Where are you in Central Fl?

This I can do as I have to often. As bob414 stated, log on as yourself (Administrator) and go to Control Panel. User Accounts and click on Change an Account. Click on the user and change them to Administrator. Just don't forget to switch it back after they do 'whatever.' Jane
