More Negativity

いつも来られない。。。

Does this mean 'can't always come...' or 'can never come'? Or does it depend? I can't seem to clarify these negative sentences in my mind.

That would be "can never come". If you wanted to say "can't always come", you would say いつもはこられない

Is Tae Kim your first name or your full name?

Also, do you use a newsreader program? You always seem to be quick in reading my posts even when they are few and far between.

Kim is my last name. My full name is Tae Kyong Kim, but I use Tae as my first name. Yes, it keeps me from obessively checking a bunch of sites all the time. Work is very boring... :)

Ok, so hopefully you won't mind if I call you Tae. I always wondered.
