[Mike Prasuhn]

Hi, long time absentee from these parts, I don't think I've been active on the LAB since 2007ish, but was able to somehow retrieve my old account, with "archive_" prepended to the username. My display name was my old username and when I tried to update it to my full name - 'Michael Prasuhn' - I got an error that the name was already in use. This seems odd since I don't know how I would have an account under another username, and I don't think there's anyone else with that name that would be registered here.

Can you help me find the other account and see if it belongs to me, or if it's an archive thing, could you change that one to 'Mike' so that I can change this one to Michael?

Since your real name is displaying I assume this is straightened out.

Hey Mac, I understood him to mean that he would prefer his displayed name be "Michael" instead of "Mike".

I will reset the user name on your old account (with 600+ posts). This will cause a password reset. The automatically generated password will be emailed to you at the email address on file, which I believe is your current address. Log in with that password and go to your profile to reset your password. I will remove the "archive" part of your username.

Is it possible to recover my old account? I didn't realize I had two accounts on here.
