We did this a long time ago (it seems like ages) over at MMG: Where did you come up with your Forum name?

I have had my nickname "Mikesla" since I created my BBS back in 1989. Mikesla is short for Michael Slaunwhite (if you didn't already know).

Company “B”(Tom Green Rifles) 4th Texas Infantry (Hell Roarin' Fourth), seemed the right for the time. :woohoo: :woohoo:

This is a great topic.
Back in the day when AOL was the hot way to get on the Internet you could have 5 screen names on the same account. A buddy of mine had an AOL account under Bornblind and let me use one of his so I didn't have to pay for my own account. I came up with Born2see.

I view Sherman as one of America's two greatest generals, (the other being Patton). I just wanted to honor his fun filled stroll through the south.

AP Hill is my favorite general. I've been Little Powell since the early days of TC2M.
