Since I missed the initial chance:
"Tedder" is last name
"Bear" becasue my wife thinks of me as her teddy bear (and when the wife's happy everyone's happy)

My ID?
I used to use NoH2O as my ID but when I sold my 993 and bought my first BMW M Car (M Coupe) I had to change my tune. So I changed to DriveBy to signify the fun I was having driving by people in my ugly clown car M Coupe.
Had nothing to do with representin' "South Side" in drive by shootings.

Back before the internet, we had dial-up BBS's. Those were the days of the Apple ][e and 300-baud modems with couplers. Anyhow, I had a BBS and as the SysOp (system operator) my name was the Gravedigger (another long story). When Bellsouth first started offering email, you got a choice of 8 characters so I grabbed gravedgr@bellsouth.net. I still have the same email address 12+ years later.
Consequently, I use gravedgr on all the forums so that as I change cars (and change forums) people remember me as the same person. On a side note, every so often I get an email out of the blue saying "Hey, is this still your email address?". And it is - I pay $9.95/mo. for dial-up that I don't use just to keep my email even though I have broadband through Comcast.

No one will ever accuse you of being the paranoid type.

I'm late to this party: Don STRIMBU == dstrimbu. Don't have much to hide, I guess.
Interesting thread - thanks for starting it, Ben - (I'm really liking this kinder, gentler OCBen... <g>).
