I'm going to give myself some credit here.
In the early days of the board, his name was "bunnyman", presumably because he liked that band.
He mentioned being a gay bear, so I suggested he change his name to "bearman", which he did.
Having met him since then, "bearman" is much more appropriate. And he's a really good guy to boot.
Bonus info for Walky only: My wife and I refer to each other as "bunny" and "bear." I'll let you figure out who is who.

Wait . . . Bearman, and Space, are bears?
Excuse me; my hand needs attention.

space is not what i would consider a bear. he's lean (he bellyaches that he's fat, but he's not). he's not particularly hairy, and he doesn't look particularly cuddly to me. he's much more of a twink (despite being what… 50?).
bearman, on the other hand, does conform to the bear moniker in many ways. very high bear-hug/cuddle factor. hairy with beard, at least the last time i saw him. and as others have pointed out, he's a class act. just the nicest and most interesting guy. i've only chatted with him 3 or 4 times, but he's one of my top ten IRL boardies.

let's not forget his monumental claim to fame…rumor has it…he read the letters of Impeachment on the House floor!
I say your description isn't too far from the truth…but to physically objectify Bearman is to miss most of his greatest qualities as a human
also if space is going to be called a bear…he'd probably look like this

Hey Sweetcell, what was the last time you saw me? Did I mention I've gained 25 pounds since my last marathon in 2013? And though I choose not to, I could grow a full beard and have before.
Twink, yeah right! Doesn't Vansmack have that term locked down among 9:30 boardies?
Still, I could never be the bear that Bearman is.
