The cellar was my first foray into online communications.

(I found the number for the BBS in Delaware Valley Computer User and thought, "why the heck not.")

I was confronted with that blinking cursor that was prompting me to enter my login name.

Now, I could have chosen a lot of different things.

Looking back I'm still surprised my name wasn't Wumpus ...

but anyway ...

I just up and typed "wolf"

as in SilverWolf

Which was a recurrent dream image ...

It's also my name.

Well, one of them.

But it _is_ my cool Cellar name ...

and ultimately became my first login name for the 'net.

So maybe it's not as much of a story as some of the other folks here, but it's mine.
