rename notice

mneme just renamed his LJ. His preferred handle had been taken by an earlier user who wrote a single post and then disappeared, but now that account has been purged.
I'm in exactly the same situation. My original intent and always preferred desire was to be
kalimac, but that too had been taken by someone who wrote a single post and then disappeared. When signing up, on the fly I went for an altered spelling "calimac", but I never liked it, not least because people thought it had something to do with California.
So I checked and, sure enough, now at last my long-gone squatter has also been purged, so I've changed myself. The wrong spelling redirects to the right one, but I don't know for how long, so if you have any external links or bookmarks directly to my LJ, you might want to change them.
( Why Kalimac at all? )
