Yup. DSG. Before that it was my real name, Dagbert Silas Greenspittle.

My daughter was born in Jan. 1988, so my recollection on JXN is accurate.

I don't know if you recall, but I had a big trade loss due to my daughter. It was the boom boom years, 1999, and I was trading options on some internet stock the name of which eludes me. I was in the trade looking to close it out and my wife called me away to change a diaper. By the time I got back, the trade had gone south and I gave up about $5,000 in gains. That was one expensive poopy diaper.
