(1) They've said that I'm ugly too

About me:
I usually try to say what I think, straightly. This is just because
I hate everyday soap-opera going on, when people have always to think
"now what did he mean by saying that..". Though sometimes I have to
slip from my policy, as some people seem to get offended if I say
directly what I happen to think about them or what they are doing. :-)
Even so, many people who know me, consider me as a nice guy, or then
they just fake it very well.

About WB: 
My usual approach to situations is from above, though sometimes
I just take a A8 and go rip some A6M's apart. (Yes, they turn well, and A8
is relatively a slow plane which doesn't turn well, but I don't need a
good shot as one ping is enough.)

Responsible for introducing WB to me was TNeck, who "forced" me to try
flying online when he saw that I could hit drones with few pings when
emptying full ammoload of Dora. My first flight online was, if I
remember right, in February 1997. I have flown with Icebreakers since
June of 1997.

About my callsign:
Tool for bashing idiotic lusers is called "LART", which is a acronym
from "Luser Attitude Readjustement Tool", and as I prefer Dora, which 
is about perfect LART itself, I decided that that would make a short
and nice callsign too. Logical choice would have been "pint", but I
don't want to mix up my life and gaming too much.
If you think that I consider myself as a "gods wrath from above", as
I chose callsign "lart", you're wrong. I sometimes wonder if I am
the luser being readjusted.

About my toolchoices:
Reason why I prefer Dora, is because Dora has the feel of Tool -
robust and powerful. Large fueltank, plenty of ammo, fast even with
a bomb on board. 

I prefer german planes also because they lack the finesse, that's 
something that machine made for killing doesn't need. If WB would
be a game about transporting people from field to another and serving
warm meals during flight, that would be totally different situation.
