Low intelligence? I wish I’d known that before I’d posted this vanity item!

DB was my nick name during my high school years too. In Cantonese bee means intelligence, and dee means low. That is ‘low intelligence’.

I accepted this nick name and used DBIverson as online account names for a while (I’m a fan of Allen Iverson). All results of the google search of ‘DBIverson’ belongs to me. But I only knew the first two explanation you’ve pointed out until now.

The DB follow-up! Beautiful.
I hope you don’t become one of those underground sinister scientists that lures innocent bystanders to your basement to be hypnotized by little blinking lights into a deep trance which results in DB research for that next branding invention hoopla…
Berkelium Dubnium – affects on human cerebral tissues
Barium Darmstadtium – affects on human spleen
Sheesh, now I’m scaring myself….
Really, I Just finished reading your Dec. 14th article “Could warm feet save the world?” I’m impressed with the way you write about advanced scientific details in a way that is so easily understood. RSS’d and Stumbled. Cya round and good luck with sciencebase
