No, not unless I'll find clients here? Which I'm really not after. I
get every bit as irritated as the others here with obvious
solicitations and SPAM . . . I try not to get mean about it, though,
'cause usually, they just don't know better . . . .
In this case, I include my info in my sig because I have nothing to
hide. Too, because it's my professional affiliation and I'm among
professionals . . . And lastly, because if anyone here wants to talk
to me via e-mail (unless they're a troll, of course), I'd like to
provide the venue. Present company included if you so wish. ( :

Actually, no. "Principal" in this case means "principal partner" or
operator. It's actually a legal term. Principal is most commonly used
in the context you speak of, but not in this case, and not always . . .
prin·ci·pal (prns-pl) (some phoenetic symbols wouldn't carry over)
adj.
1. First, highest, or foremost in importance, rank, worth, or degree;
chief. See Synonyms at chief.
n.
*1. One who holds a position of presiding rank*, especially the head of
an elementary school or high school.
2. A main participant in a situation.
3. A person having a leading or starring role.
5. Law
a. A person who empowers another to act as his or her representative.
b. The person having prime responsibility for an obligation as
distinguished from one who acts as surety or as an endorser.
Though for the record, I *was* an art teacher for a while! ( : And
before I adopted the title of Principal, I consulted with my atty and
he gave the go-ahead.
