Your Screen Name

[leatherneck]

Leatherneck is a military slang term for a member of the United States Marine Corps. The dress blue uniform still bears that stock collar today, while the service uniform's standing collar was changed to a rolled-flat type prior to World War II. Now accepted by Webster as a synonym for Marine, the term "Leatherneck" was derived from a leather stock once worn around the neck by both American and British Marines—and soldiers also. Beginning in 1798, "one stock of black leather and clasp" was issued to each U. S. Marine annually.

[Hawken1911]

Hi Svein,

In some versions of the Robin Hood legend, Robin was the Earl of Huntington...with a 't', which is a fictional place.  Huntingdon...with a 'd', also know as Huntingdonshire, was a real place in medieval England.

[Ken Taylor]

May I explain why I don't have a screen name.

When I signed up I was brand new to computers and to Tradgang so I didn't have a clue about the reasons for a screen name.

I also thought that using my real name might make it easier for old friends and acquaintances that I have lost touch with through the years to recognize me. I guess when you get older you become sentimental about things like that.

[Rufus]

Someone started calling me Rufus 40+ years ago when I was a wet behind the ears apprentice with the power company. It was either that or R² from then on. Sometimes I wonder if they changed Dufus to Rufus just to make me feel better.
