Don't know where else to post this so, since I hang around C-5 General most of the time:

stewb94 shall henceforth and forever more be known as StewB66.

Stew being a nickname. B being my last initial.
66 being significant in a number of ways; first year of 'vette driven, year I graduated from a certain educational institution, I live in Oklahoma City which is on historic Route 66.

Moderators feel free to place this wherever you deem appropriate!

Thanks!

HEY! MYOB!!

Actually, the 94 was the year of my first 'vette which, obviously, I no longer own.

I'm not 66 years old, either, jrose! Well...not yet, anyway!
