What's Behind Your Quilting Board ID?
#255
As a caver, I go slithering through the underground, and visit bats in their natural habitats. I developed a sincere interest in the critters, and became an amateur bat ecologist. They are fascinating and play an important role in our ecological balance. When time came to get a CB handle, I selected olebat, which has become a screen name anytime a screen name or email is needed. My kids (several thousand 4-H’ers a year) really get a kick out of being able to call their advisor olebat. As an employee of the University of Georgia Cooperative Extension Service, I make house calls and answer bat related phone calls. One of the many pleasures I have is making presentations to garden clubs, day camps, library talks, schools, etc., educating the public about our poorly understood flying mammals. The timid call me bat lady. I often remind folks that the name is ole, not old bat. There is an oldbat in our National Speleological Society. Great woman, and much younger than I. (Also a quilter BTW.)

What a wonderful memory to have with your ID, Krystyna.
Mine was simple. We had a new email account and I wanted to use my two favorites: cats and quilts. QuiltedCat(s), quiltingcat(s), catsquilting, etc. were taken and I did not want to be #2 so I took out the G and came up with QuiltinCats.
