    When I joined DP that was the name of my email account.
    The first 4 letters are the initials of may name+surname.
    The digits initially were 51 (because or area51). I was using that email ´till I got too much spam, then I changed to a new account replacing 51 with 52.

    GreenGambler .com was my first website and one of my first domain names. I tried to run an affiliate gambling website but lost interest and started domaining instead. Now, I am doing both domaining and web building but still no gambling sites really. The "green" was originally meant to mean "new amateur or greedy, like green with envy. Now I just use it as a screenname. The green can mean environmental and the gambler can mean that I take risks to help the environment.. LOL I dunno.

    My name originated from a famous AIM conversation that was floating around, but I can't seem to find anywhere anymore. It's a really stupid name to use but I only registered to check out an attachment -- I never would have guessed that I'd still be here 16 months later!

    The 'bor' in my language refers to the well known tree. Now I put the 'bor' in the translator and got the 'boron'...with 'pine' beeing on the second place, but hidden at the moment I was reading.

    ...Someone asked me once why I haven't chosen Aluminium, which is known better...

    It was offered to me when I was 12 and signed up for a social networking site. Kept it since.
