Mine, progzealot, I thought was obvious when I made it. Prog = genre of music and zealot = big fan. But some read it as progze/alot. Either way, I just appreciate it when someone chats with me.

That's OK. There are new members which may now respond to this thread.

This is not the first time a previous topic has been resurrected. Now, if you want to play safe, you could start a "what is progressive rock" thread.

Re: What's in a name?
Mine is an acronym for one of my favorite Yes songs - GIve LOve EAch DAy. Great song, and a great philosophy. It also has a double meaning.

Hello, folks. I'm the new member.

My name doesn't come from Damo Suzuki of CAN.
I say "Damo (changing from "Domo", in English "Thanks" or "Hello")" again and again so it has become my nickname.

That is only half of the name

What is the secret behind Xt7942 or are those just random letters/numbers?

Wow, your pointing out is very strict.
"Xt7942" is the randomized letters & numbers on a Japanese free-written board.
But I like the sound as "DamoX", too.
