I have several cures to the problem. The first is a non_pub *address*. I have yet to be charged extra for this service by any (BOC or IOC) company. With such, the upside_down books seem to ignore me, even in the number section. The second is of course the old alias question. For many years I was listed as Ernst Stavro Blofelt. Prior to that, I used Bela Oknyx. My current one? Well, let's say that's left as an exercise for the student... If you do find out, enjoy it.
