Hi,
This does not have much to do with swimming, but I was just wondering how people come up with their handles (your alias that you use for your name). Do you have a specific meaning or did somebody just give you this nickname?
Mine was given partially tot me by my brother-in-law, who thought that hans was a Dutch name (i am Dutch) and I like James bond, although he is a bad swimmer...
It's my Navy "callsign". Most people think that I got my callsign because of my surname. In reality, I'm "Frosty" because of my desire to make my cockpit nice and cold.
An EA-6B has two cockpits: the forward cockpit with the pilot and navigator and an aft cockpit with the weapons operators. It's sort of like a limo...If you are sitting in front, you can see where you are going...if you are in back, you've only got windows out the sides. We've only got one common air conditioner, controlled by the navigator (me), who sits forward with all the glass windows letting the sun come through. Because it like it cold, I run the A/C up near maximum. This, in turn, makes the aft cockpit (already in the "shade") even colder. Oh, the A/C unit is located at the back of the crew compartments, meaning that the aft cockpit gets all the cold air directly before it filters its way forward.
On some occasions, I have made it "snow" in the back seat...hence my moniker.
