Good evening. I'm IHCOYC, a handle I have been using on Usenet since around 1995, and on BBSs since maybe 1984. If you wonder what it stands for, think Greek.
My interests include Indo-European, Germanic, and Latin linguistics, nineteenth century French literature, the English Civil War, the Reformation, the 1600s.
