This will represent no real challenge to me going forward, as I edited Wikipedia using my real name from May 16 of 2012 until early this year, when I requested to be changed back to the former "No barometer of intelligence" and keep all of my editing history intact under each name as I went from one to the other. I do not anticipate any future need to make further requests to resume editing under a pseudonym again in the future. Thanks for the patience of the Wikipedia editing community here.
