Going totally off topic here FRiend, I’ve got a question for you that has been bugging the daylights out of me, and I finally remembered to ask:

Could you tell me the significance of your screen name?

I’ve been trying to figure it out, and no luck.

I thought ‘dram’, could that be a reference to ‘dynamic random access memory’? No, that can’t be it.

‘ramB’, is that the successor to ‘ramA’? (you know, like the Mexican with two kids, a boy and girl, so he named them ‘Hosea and Hoseb’?)

Anyway, that’s all, and thanks in advance!

No problem, other than its kind of geeky. Grond was the ram in Lord of the Rings that could break down otherwise impenetrable walls. Everywhere else, from my blog to my email and on other message boards, I’m GrondramB but due to a typo I missed the “r” when I signed up on Freep.

Ok, my wife was reading over my shoulder... She says “kind of geeky” doesn’t begin to describe it. :)
