Hey, tnx for the welcome, I feel at home already.

Well, about that name. I adopted it a while ago, I got the idea from The Matrix, where the ship in the 'real' reality was named Nebucadnezzar, or something like that, there are several ways of spelling it. The name is from a Syrian king who I believe lived about 2000 years ago. Then I remembered a thing about yews from school. They sometimes omit vowels beause of respect, so the name of their god beomes YHWH. Applying this to Nebbie, there's my name. A nice coïncidence i noticed only later, is that in Magic: the Gathering there is also a creature named: Nebuchadnezzar (or something like that).

thanks for the explanation..i've not seen The Matrix..heard it's a good film..it's interesting how people choose their name....
