Shakespeare (sp?) wrote "what's in a name" (among other things) ...
It seems kinda funny a member with such a name can be welcome here

| Ah, my polymorph spell has been seen through . . . . Yes, I am a dragon. But instead of gold, I hoard knoledge and stories, and share them with others . . . . But surely you've noticed I'm not the only dragon within these walls? |

Not the only Dragon? No... I'm pretty sure of another Dragon roaming between these walls... in disguise... Maybe there are even more...

Wow, how odd. I've seen your posts all over the place but never really paid any attantion to the Wyrm in BookWyrm. How clever |

Why thank you. Actually, I like this name so much, I use it whenever I can, and have for several years.
However, I know for certain that there's a Bookwyrm on AIM, so don't assume it's me if you see this name someplace else. |

I thought Bookwyrm was the equivalent we have in France: Rat de Bibliotheque (Library's rat)
It someone who read a lot |

Nowadays it is, but originally it was a bug that had a particular liking for parchment I believe.
It is that meaning which Frey was referring to but you are not wrong Zemd. I believe that was the one that Bookwyrm was thinking of when he created the profile. |

| Actually, Artalis, Zemd, the name you're referring to is "bookworm" -- my nick is Bookwyrm. I chose this name because it's a play on words. Wyrm and worm sound almost the same, but wyrm is actually a Middle English word meaning dragon. Personally, I love puns and plays on words -- which is why I like things like Asterix (no, Zemd, I don't read it in the original French). |

Enter no conflict against no fanatics unless you can defuse them. Oppose a religion with another religion only if your proofs (miracles) are irrefutable or if you can mesh in a way that the fanatics accept you as God-inspired. This has long been the barrier to science assuming a mantle of divine revelation. Science is so obviously man-made. Fanatics (and many are fanatic about one thing or another) must know where you stand, but more importantly, must recognise who whispers in your ear.
