I disappear for a while, then come back and everyone is calling the R9's "pups."
When did that start? Just here, or did the Rohrbaugh's deem that as a name?

That was started by R9SCarry (Chris) - It was even before I became a member. Forget the reason - know I saw it posted somewhere by Chris in the past.

The reason was simple - at some early stage in this board's history I almost without thinking used ''pup'' - much as anything a term of endearment!!!
It seemed to have stuck - but that was all there was to it really
Boringly simple explanation!
