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.

Dozo is just the first part of a polite phrase in Japanese (dozo yoroshiku), which, if I'm not mistaken, is something like "I am honored to meet you". However, my auto-didactic Japanese is very limited. I just love Japanese language, asian cultures in general, and using the letter 'z' as much as I can.
