The Viking "Greataxe" was shown to have the greatest force of all edged weapons tested. In the same way, I often cleave through opposing member's opinions.
Origins of hseiken: Special technique from Fatal Fury = Hakkyoku Seiken Technique. I spelled it wrong for a long time calling myself Hakyoku Seiken. This roughly translates into political catastrophe. However, no one can pronounce it. So I shortened it in hseiken. People still mispronounce it but not as bad. I later adopted HS as my persona (I use it for the music I make) and I let HS stand for anything anyone wants. High School, Huge Shrapnel, Heavenly (*)(*)(*)(*), whatever. I don't care. I still use hseiken as forum ID because it's less likely to be taken than HS.
I began posting in political forums in 1996 and naturally -- being Internet forums naive -- I used my real name. Not one of my better decisions as it turned out. So I shut it down for a few months, rethought the notion and then returned to posting using a name out of history picked at random. But it sort of irritated me since my posting style did not fit the figure's historical personality. Then I hit upon the wild notion -- okay, so I am slow about some things -- of just using an interesting sounding surname taken from a telephone directory -- remember those things? Gatewood is about the sixth nic I've had since 1996 -- as I tend to stick with one for several years. So that's the sordid tale. It's a randomly selected name that has no historical significance and does not irritate me. Solid gold!
It was a little bit of a curiosity I found in Latin. Without the last i it means Trojans, but I found it written as such and, if I remember right, we don't know why. It may have just been a misprint in the original Latin, but that's unlikely.

I try also to be relevant. Axes are still found in many homes as working tools. Swords are oboslete. Stronger, but still obsolete.
Greataxe....hmmm. I also remember the term "broadaxe". I think it was a large axe. Also, I wonder what's up with "ax" vs. "axe"? Ah, life's little mysteries....
Im all about civility too many jerks out there I hope this place is different maybe a good change of scenery I hope some intelligent people are here who can have mature discussions the playground antics get old. [MENTION=52651]Trinnity[/MENTION] you take care and have a blessed day and thanks for the enlightenment
Jesse Gause... A mystery in mormon circles. I like the fact that some figures play their part in history and then fade into oblivion. We can't all have a name like Caesar
I got mine from back when I was a kid playing flight sim video games. My first callsign they game gave my flight was Nightmare and it sounded cool. I put the 515 on the end from the movie "Flight of the Intruder" where one of the pilots says "Devil505 we have your target in sight, he's ours gentlemen". After watching it again years later I realized he said "505" and not "515". I was already used to the 515 so it just stuck.
