Here's the real scoop. John Lambert was born in White Plains, NY on July 20, 1954. He was given the name Douglas after his Scottish godfather's clan. In his early years, John became increasingly discontented with his city surroundings and ran away from home at age 14. After a few years jumping trains across the US and Canada, he was taken in by an elderly eskimo couple who had just relocated from the Yukon to the Priblof Islands of Alaska. It was through this couple that John met his first wife, Annie and they were married soon afterward. It was on their wedding night that the marriage started to go bad as Annie refused to let John consumate the relationship. Years after their 72 hour marriage was over, John would find out that Annie was indeed a lesbian and that she had been intoxicated when he had proposed. John was so disheartened by this that he decided to make a new life for himself and ended up settling in British Columbia after a 3 year apprentiship with some Finnish woodsmen in the Yukon. At this point, John was befriended by Lou Greffard of Clearwater, BC, who owned a small saw shop in town. Lou taught John many things about chainsaws over the next few years, later adopting John and giving him the nickname "Gypo" because he had come to know that John had been on his own most of his life. The Greffard family had recently lost it's 102 year old patriarch, Dennis, to influenza and when John took over running the saw shop from Lou, local customers started calling him Dennis because he reminded them of their old and dear friend. John sarted getting interested in building modified saws some years ago when he attended a logging show in Washington state. It was here that he first observed a saw that had been constructed around a snowmobile engine. John knew that he wanted to have a catchy name so people would remember it and he wanted this name to have something to do with these new hotsaws that fascinated him. Rotax goes with (illiterative instinct comes into play).....Robert. The pseudonym "Rotax Robert" was born on May 23, 1997 in Enumclaw, Washington. It turns out that after Lou Greffard found out that John was making a name for himself doing hotsaws on the side, he was displeased because John was neglecting his daily duties at the saw shop. Because he didn't want Lou to disown him, John realized that he had to create yet another alias so he could continue doing hotsaws on the side. John's big dilemma was that he was running out of clever names to use. One day, a regular customer came in and said what he had said for years every time he came into the shop, "Got 'er done yet?" (John was always late getting the local loggers saws fixed). So John combined the name of the customer, Ken, with the usual misspelled name from the now-popular phrase, to invent yet another name for himself, Ken Dunn. This goes on and on and on, but you probably get the idea. No one has ever met John Lambert or knows where he really lives. Pictures posted of him are just some local dysfunctional rube that he buys a 6 pack for every time he wants a few new pictures of "himself" to post.
So here's at least a more complete list of all the names that "Gypo Logger" uses here. They are all the same person, so contacting any of them will get you to the same individual behind the keyboard:
