Eek, I have been rumbled!

So what would one say/write in Afrikaans for "Mijnheer"?

According to Google Translate (which is obviously not perfect)
translating from Dutch "Mijnheer" to Afrikaans gives the same word.

Perhaps, as a mark of respect, he should be addressed as Baas Chris?

And can you blame him for doing that?  ;)

The thing is though, if you look back at the postings from say 10 years
ago in 2003, made under the name of Chris Glur, they were very straight
forward and up front and not of the trolling variety.  And Chris Glur
has made contributions to free software projects in the distant past.

So I am not 100% convinced that Chris Glur is posting with an intent of
trolling although it does *appear* to be of the order of 60%-70% that
that is the case.

But appearance are sometimes deceptive and as they say
"the owls are not what they seem." (And just to avoid giving
any wrong impression I have never watched that TV show except
for the opening credits.)

Of course there is always the possibility of identity theft and there
is a malicious troll who has assumed the identity of Chris Glur for
the purpose of denigrating his name?
