Long time ago, when we started working with VFP 6, I did the same as you did, changed it to my user name, and I was also looking to put the date, but I could not find a way. Anyways, I stopped using my initials and researching about the date like the next day, when we tried to uncomment my code from my co-workers computer, for he had a different user name, so uncomment would not work, and the situation will be worst if you use dates, you will not be able to uncomment code easily. Just a thought
