Bruck is a nickname I picked up years ago on my local (Detroit at the time) ham radio frequency. When departing the on-air conversation, I'd sign off with something along the lines of, "the preceding transmission is brought to you courtesy of the Voice of Bruck News Service." I later started a blog by that same name, which attracted about 2 dozen readers. I don't update it much anymore.
