[QUOTE="geolemon, post: 316318, member: 547749"] As for me, my name is Chris, I'm 29... earned a nickname "lemon" after I came into a pizzeria on my day off and ticked a co-worker off who was prepping fish-frys for the day... he came around and tried to bean me with whole lemons as I skated off down the street. Opened up a Geocities account as my first webspace, and picked "geolemon" as a combination of the two, and I just use it everywhere. I've got way too many hobbies.. skateboarding, snowboarding, mogul skiing, bmx and flatland biking, kiteboarding (surf and snow), autocross racing, showing my Civic, building mini-trucks, customizing 1:64th model cars, computer programming (C, C#, Java, RPG, Net.Data, advanced MS SQL and IBM DB2 SQL, VB of course, Net.Data, and typical web stuff), and of course car audio. If I could only pick two, I'd pick skateboarding and car audio. I got into car audio way back when I was 15 or 16, just because I was amazed at how you could get so much "boom" out of a car, on such a low-voltage electrical system. I thought it was a cool, and also the physics just baffled me. Now, I've become an old fogey and primarily care about sound quality. My real perpetuating interest in car audio (and a reason that I'm not really a home audio guy much at all) is the challenge. ...In case you couldn't tell by my other hobbies, I enjoy a challenge.
