Hi All,
DevillEars is a construction based on my surname (= de Villiers) and is one I've used on all forums mainly due to early onset Alzheimer's and the need to avoid cluttering the mind with useless and unnecessary detail...
NB: There is no hidden "Satanist" connotation!

My apologies - my somewhat weird sense of humour can get me into awkward situations.
I don't have Alzheimer's - its just something of a standing joke between my wife and I - each accusing the other on a regular basis (or using it as an excuse for forgetting a birthday, anniversary, etc.)
Maybe I should switch to "FOOT IN MOUTH DISEASE"?
Dave
