I am Lindaru. This actually started for the Star Trek site at which time I took my full first name and first two letter of my middle name LINDA RUth and put them together. On that site I have a last name, Drow, which is backwards from my maiden name, WORD.
I carried this over to Babylon but dropped the last name. I tell people that I am originally from Mars, my mother was a rogue telepath, and her best friend was a Centauri woman named Lindaru for who I was named.
My mother suffered the same fate as Ivanova's mom. My Dad is a retired Martian transport driver.
In reality, my Mom died of congestive heart failure at 50 (1982) but was very telepathic. She and I used to communicate this way often. My Dad in reality is a retired bus driver.
Hope this clears up the mystery of my persona.

Lindaru,
Thank you for submitting the meaning of your name. I enjoyed reading it.
Sorry to hear about your mother. My own father died at age 35 from cancer, a sarcoma. It has never occurred to me incorporate his death into my online persona, although it certainly shaped my life.
I can not say when I will get it up at the board. I have to finish the original posters from the TNT site (almost done) adn then the ten or so more that posted later on at that site. Then the newbies get done.
Every gets their own webpage for right now. Hopefully there will be comments from others to add later on.
Season's Greetings.
The Gardener
I see you already have a title, "The Gardener". I invite you to check out: http://members.tripod.com/~Lindaru/booji.html . . . and let me know if you would like to join our followers. This is a religion that is a non-religion based on Marcus' humorous comment from Voices Of Authority, "I'll put a bucket on my head and pretend to be the ancient Vorlon God Booji". This all got started when W.B. Boards was still under the Well Engaged format and has continued to grow strong.
The purpose of this gathering is simply to have fun. All members can contribute to the general shape of this web site and even have a Booji web site of their own! We often get together for chats and send each other amusing things we find via E-Mail. No doubt you have seen the topics "Booji 5 - The Bucket Is Still Speaking" and "What The Heck Is Booji". We have a multitude of talented people in our group who design graphics,write stories, and who even have their own Booji web sites. One of our followers writes original music in *.mid format to put in the Temple.
Plan to spend plenty of time at the above URL as there is a good reason it is called "The World's Largest Booji Temple". Much like the Smithsonian, it will take you a while to see every exhibit!
