Despite your reasons , it's the same code liberals use to ID each other.  After reading many thousands of letters to the editor and comments over the years my assessment is spot on.  Your original comment proves that. You can judge a book by the cover and by how many names they list when writing. To your credit , at least you have the integrity and courage to use your own name and not hide like cowards behind phony names like many do on here . People find courage when they don't have to use their real name and be held accountable for what they say.
