My spammy sense is going nuts just at the whole ALL CAPS of this guy's

I thought all-uppercase last names were a traditional French convention...
This guy is French, isn't he? - judging by his name.

His habit of addressing everyone as "Mister" is peculiar indeed, but
maybe he is really just very new to the customs and conventions of the
Anglophone Internet community?

Just wondering...

I'm not sure of conventions, but he just referred to me as Mister Bruns in private e-mail. Not a good way to get on my good side, given Brielle is a French name that means 'exalted goddess'. :-)

Though he seems highly optimistic that I should develop for him. *rolls eyes*
