true my friend, cant leave out sabbath or purple either, but to me zeps 'communication breakdown' and sabbaths 'paranoid' were massive jumps forward in late 60's music. and hey, the Doors as well, too many to mention. i just feel rainbow were too commercial, but live and let live ay

Koravel

Thanatos- Greek for death, I believe. A Grecian recently told me so, I originally thought it meant Death-bringer, but apparently that would be Thanatos Fernei.

I can read Greek, and always wished I learned it much better than I know it now. The 19 is simply because I was 19 years old when I started using it as a common online name.

I figured as a beginner play that I would get beat hard by my opponents in chess, but I've gotten more comfortable after the first 4 games.

I love history and chess. My favorite time period is napoleonic era, and my favorite napoleonic era country is prussia. Blucher was one of Prussia's best generals during and after the napoleonic era. So ChessBlucher.

cool answers thus far!  even though a particular person dissed me on another forum, i will agree with him that Dio rocked!  w/o him metal wouldnt have the "satan horns" hand gesture-though according to Dio, its a ward against the evil eye that he got from his Italian grandmother...any way Tool is actually the best band ever but thats another forum topic...ANYWAY my name is boring, my initials plus the most perfect number- 303 - it so pretty and symetrical- 303 - ahhhh soothing to look at

I used to play an RPG called RuneScape. Since so many people play it, it was so hard to find a username, so I just typed in something random. That name stuck, and I've been using it for all my other accounts on different websites.
