What's the deal with your nickname? How did you get it? If your nickname is self-explanatory, then tell everyone when you first started using the internet, and what was the first thing that made you say "wow, this isn't just a place for freaks after all?" Was it a website? Was it an email from a long-lost friend? Go on, spill it.

The nickname? Came from the fact that I tend to find myself in the wrong place at the wrong time rather often. I've been eye witness to 4 plane crashes and have had 3 people drop dead in front of me. So, some old friends of mine dubbed me the Last Horseman of the Apocalypse.

The "Real Name" comes from my longtime nick Scott Free from way back in my WWIV BBS days (201, TRoI). My actual real name is nobody's business but mine. :)
