so they picked a name that makes most of native English speakers to think I'm a woman...

When I first came on here, I was guilty as charged there :o

In my defence though, I grew up watching the TV show Digimon, where one of the main characters, who is female, has the name Kari.

If you were as old as me then your username would be Borg 8080 :)

....1995 was when I was able to scrape enough money together for my 1st computer. I played around with them when I was younger but could never afford to own one.

I hit the big 5 0 this year

Not to forget forum language rules, here's translation of two last posts:

Me to Borg: How are you?

Borg to me: Fine, thanks.

My real name is Mina-Laura. :)
I have seen you after a long days , Laura :) Hope there is everything fine .
Yes, Severed. My father told me when I was a kid that when I was born in 1959, they really wanted to find a name this beautiful, apparently extraordinary intelligent babyboy of theirs could later use as a forum name on SF ;) They considered WhizKid and Carl Lawrence but didn't like those, so they picked a name that makes most of native English speakers to think I'm a woman...
Carl Lawrence was not a bad option at all :p But the best option might be Love Windows 7 .:zip:

I used to drive big trucks (18 wheelers) when I first started driving I pulled into the truck terminal and got out, another driver saw me barefooted and called out to me “hey barefoot” and it stuck, I liked it so much I started using ‘Bare Foot Kid’ for a CB handle (Citizens Band Radio AKA) that was almost 30 years ago.
