How did Skuzzy get his name?
« on: June 01, 2011, 05:18:41 PM »
Dear AH2 Community,

Skuzzy seems to be a name with meaning, but I'm not sure what kind.  Could any of you 'old farts' clue me in on how he got his name?  It would be worth mentioning if we ever got a history book for this forum.

If I recall, he earned the nickname in college. He built a SCSI drive, and the name stuck.
