When I was first BBS'ing, back in the days when a 300 baud modem was considered good, I dialed into many BBS's. I had a hard time keeping track of passwords. Most of the time user names were real names.

The first BBS that wanted a handle was called Gearjammers. In order to help remember my handle I thought Gears=Sprockets=Spacely's Sprockets.

Once I came up with that handle, I used it everywhere.

The only attribute I believe I share with Mr. Spacely is a very loud voice. "JETSON!!!!!!!"

As I thought I posted a while ago, in the new incarnation of the Cellar I decided to use my real name as a test of the Consitution and personal statement that I stand behind what I say. If I ever became uncomfortable about saying something because the government might not like it, then that would indicate that my government has failed me in not assuring me of my rights.

BTW, I did search for the post where I discussed this but came up empty.

If any of you are familiar w/ cop movies, you'll reconize my name... def. one of the coolest movies of all time. I mean, does it get any better than a '68 charger and a '68 mustang racing through the streets of san fran in excess of 100 mph???

I think not.
