Long Story.... The abridged version, I was dating a girl that used "CuteAzHell" for her screen name a looong time ago. I went into a chat room with her once, and she had some of her friends "clone" her name (ie. CuteAzHelI, CuteAzHeIl, etc.. in the font that the chat used, they all looked the same) I left the room and made "LostAzHell" and came back in... This along with my affinity for long road trips (CA 2 LI, NY X 10, CA - NH, CA 2 MO, CA 2 OH, and more.. ) The name just kinda stuck

Scott35,
I prefer the diesel electrics to be honest, They are in essence a powerstation on tracks.
Although the big boys are very impressive and hughe.

Because that is what I do.
Being "the" company electrician, I wind up doing lots of cool things, like designing interlocks so that we can have three sources of power on the train, or setting up the company LAN, but mostly crawling around in the cobwebs running wires.
Steam engines are cool, early elctrics cooler still, early deseasels ok, modern deseals have cool technology but look soulless.

Steve, I'm sure you've been asked this before, but do you Fly Like an Eagle on a Jet Airliner?

Hey great topic.
I wanted something that would be about who I am was rather than what I do for a living.
sand = My parents had a homestead cabin in 29 Palms, CA. Been going there since I was 3 months old. I've tromped all over the desert there riding, shooting and climbing. The place is now being rehabbed by my wife and myself. We're finally going to get electricity there. And for those who know me, yes I pulled a permit.
snow = I always wanted a place in the mountains since I like that as much as the desert. I like skiing, hiking and climbing. We bought a place in a little town called Forest Falls, CA. Snowed so much in 2004 a tree took out my service riser. Guess I got my wish.
