Jayne,
Many thanks for your efforts re. Comp. 178.
Loyal Oldie supporter that I know you to be I am sure that the matter of Tessa, with or without inverted commas, is secure in your keeping -- and in the keeping of various others. But pseudonyms are fair game for the determinedly curious and I do not feel their owners can expect a permanent right to their assumed obscurity. Many Sphericals have pseudonyms for competition and other purposes and have not complained at their "outing". My own disguise as Leo Vincent was, in fact, stripped bare by an eminent Spherean. I was well able to deal with the small degree of temporary inconvenience which flowed from it.
And my ouija board has as yet revealed no complaint from "Saki", "Georges Sand", "Mark Twain" et al.
