Hi D,

<< Some time maybe you could enlighten us with your handle. Or name. Starting to think that you are maybe of the Lakota tribe and you are a maybe a medicine man. >>

Naw, no medicine man.

Comes from a Macbeth soliloquy, courtesy of my playwright father, who turned me on to Shakespeare. My father had a strong playful streak in him, but somehow there was a mutation in that playful gene, and in me it's more of a wise a** at best. So, one day my SI buddy Ray Duray also asked me where I got my AKA. I sent him a copy of the Macbeth quote from where it is derived, and Ray (who musta somehow got the same wise a** gene as me) devised a takeoff, then dared me to post it on the Broadcom thread. Ray thought the BRCM thread needed some kinda shaking up at that time. He never shoulda done that..... rarely can I resist a dare. But in any event, it might amuse you, and if not, will at least show you the fantastic, sublimely profound soliloquy.
