Both are fine, though, so... yeah, this was a useless comment. Oh, and I added you to my friends list, just so yaknow. Woot.

Doesn't seem like that guy hung on to the journal for long so if you grab it, the chances of mistaken identity are low. Except that <lj user="jeek" /> seems to have known this other mendel, or maybe friended him by accident. Have you considered going by 'wlonkly' everywhere? You'd never have this problem again. The Wayback Machine has a snapshots of the former mendel’s journal and former user info.

You are your posts and your icons far more than you are your lj id. Don't bother with the hassle. Your id here is irrelevant — once on my friends list I don’t care what your name is.
