What's in your user name?

[JMW67]

In 1994, one of fellow graduate students at South Dakota State gave me the moniker "DNADave". Fast forward seven years and I was teaching a course in the Biostatistics Department at the University of Washington. The IT guy in the department asked for a list of nicknames that could be used for my email address and DNADave was one of 11 I submitted. He chose that one. Since then, I've used that nickname as my username whenever and wherever I could.

As to why DNADave? I am a statistical geneticist doing research in both animal and human genetics and genomics.

If I send you a blood sample you reckon you could tell me what the h-- my problem is my friends tell me its gunorreha I dont believe them I think its got to be genetic

Mine is fairly obvious. A bunch of years ago I drank the quarter bore koolaide, and wanted something faster than the 257 wby. 257 STWs were pretty rare back then, so I just started using it.

I used to shoot competitions to practice my firearms training. Advancing my skills helped me pass on the info to my students. So the X's and 10s was what I aim for lol.

Discretion is telling me I should probably outsource that analysis...

Could be a fun read! How did you choose your user name? What is all about! Mine came from one my horses I bred. With Horse breeding you incorporate parent bloodlines with a twist for the offspring..Doc O Skipglo is a Doc O Lena x with Skipper W ( foundation bloodlines).....Yours?

Mine is kind of obvious (338 dude) comes from the first caliber that I bought for Long Range and first caliber I reloaded, kind of where it all started for me.
