Your user name

I noticed that you recently made an edit to HSPD-7. It got me wondering whether your nom de wiki is based on the Catawba Nuclear Generating Station. You know, kind of an emergency management theme. Of course, you could be making reference to the Native American tribe, the grape, the college.... Just curious. Anyway, see you around Wikipedia! JDoorjam Talk 05:53, 19 July 2006 (UTC)

There's a creek near my land named Catawba. I like the sound of the word, but not necessarily the taste of the grapes! --Catawba 05:02, 30 August 2006 (UTC)
