How did "scooby" become "doobydew"?

How did "scooby" become "doobydew" in recent blog moderator postings? Did we get a new blog moderator, or a substitute? A little openness in the practices of the blog moderator would be welcome. For example, how did the ridiculous "prove you're not a robot" tests get changed to a simple photographed street address number and then get changed back, and why?

Perhaps the two names go well together?

Is it ok for me to have two names?
As to the 2nd part of your question, ask Google.

Maybe Dooby is moderating based on IP address of known trolls? If so, good for him.

Nope, a decade (almost) too late. Sinatra had it in 1966, "Strangers in the Night," although he reportedly hated the song.

Yeah, you always claim that you have nothing to do with, and no knowledge of, blog hosting, but Google does whatever it wants without your knowledge or consent. Give me a break. What a loser.

Does this mean that the blog moderator "doobydew" smokes doobies? If so I hope he/she/it is not friends with Suzanna Martinez! (She hates tokers!!!!!)

Oh the mysteries of this blog. Will they ever be solved?

Where are the FBI guys to investigate???? Shut down this blog because it has two names - gasp! They must be ISIL terrorist!

If you see something ... say something! (Some of you probably should just keep quiet.)

Plutonium Shots on NIF.

Tri-Valley Cares needs to be on this if they aren't already. We need to make sure that NNSA and LLNL does not make good on promises to pursue such stupid ideas as doing Plutonium experiments on NIF. The stupidity arises from the fact that a huge population is placed at risk in the short and long term. Why do this kind of experiment in a heavily populated area? Only a moron would push that kind of imbecile area. Do it somewhere else in the god forsaken hills of Los Alamos. Why should the communities in the Bay Area be subjected to such increased risk just because the lab's NIF has failed twice and is trying the Hail Mary pass of doing an SNM experiment just to justify their existence? Those Laser EoS techniques and the people analyzing the raw data are all just BAD anyways. You know what comes next after they do the experiment. They'll figure out that they need larger samples. More risk for the local population. Stop this imbecilic pursuit. They wan...

Trump is to gut the labs.

The budget has a 20% decrease to DOE office of science, 20% cut to NIH. NASA also gets a cut. This will  have a huge negative effect on the lab. Crazy, juts crazy. He also wants to cut NEA and PBS, this may not seem like  a big deal but they get very little money and do great things.

LLNL un-diversity

Actual post from Dec. 15 from one of the streams. This is a real topic. As far as promoting women and minorities even if their qualifications are not as good as the white male scientists, I am all for it. We need diversity at the lab and if that is what it takes, so be it.  Quit your whining. Look around the lab, what do you see? White male geezers. How many African Americans do you see at the lab? Virtually none. LLNL is one of the MOST undiverse places you will see. Face it folks, LLNL is an institution of white male privilege and they don't want to give up their privileged positions. California, a state of majority Hispanics has the "crown jewel" LLNL nestled in the middle of it with very FEW Hispanics at all!
