1. Name is a nickname from my college days in upstate NY back in the early 70's; inherited it from my older brother who also went to the same school but I elevated TWANKING to a whole new level.

2. I'm an asshole on the net, I'm an asshole in person.  Nice to know you can depend on SOMETHING in this unpredictable world.  Also think of myself as a cracker-jack problem solver.  Will have to demonstrate sometime.  Have an engineer's mentality; accurate info is good but solving a problem with it is even better.

Oh yeah, KEEP IT SHORT.  People don't have a ton of time to read a pile of crap, no matter how "literary" it is.  Prose should take a "scientific paper" format unless you are telling a story. (That ought to get a rise.)

They tried to assimilate me. They failed.
