I was a n00b at this web stuff until I discovered WT. But on a deeper and more fundamental level, I think all of us are learning something new every day. There's so much more out there in the world than any of us know about or understand, and we're all life long learners, whether we want to be or not. I feel that gaining wisdom is a beautiful struggle that's inherent to the human condition.

Plus, it keeps me humble.

My answer is in that other thread, but I'll put it here too.

It's incredibly simple - my initials & date of birth

Check the other thread for mine. I'm too lazy to retype or cut and paste it.

I was trying to think of a unique username. I had half a sandwich by my PC and then came up with the name.

But I found by chance the video that inspired me, and that's why I relaunched a similar one.

Sorry for the bump ;-)

I answered in the other threads, but it may be a little different than those answers.

Mine is the nickname of the name that my parents gave me on the day that I was born PLUS the shortening of the last name that my parents also gave me on that same day with a tilde to show there's something more.

Didn't understand that?

For those lacking a translator, my name is David, but I'm called Dave. The Mo is the first part of my last name.

Dave
