What's the deal with your nickname? How did you get it? If your nickname is self-explanatory, then tell everyone when you first started using the internet, and what was the first thing that made you say "wow, this isn't just a place for freaks after all?" Was it a website? Was it an email from a long-lost friend? Go on, spill it.

This account is no longer active. The only reason it is not disabled is because its contacts serve as the database for the Mark Scientist Contributions userscript. If anybody is willing, I would be much obliged if they would fork the script so that it uses a different database (e.g. their own contacts) and if they would then contact the mods so that they can close this account down. This account is in limbo until that happens (or until the mods get tired of having this loose end and disable it) and it would be really nice if someone could adopt the script so that it can be properly disposed of.

The script in question can be found at http://userscripts-mirror.org/scripts/show/127278 or at http://userscripts.org:8080/scripts/show/127278 or, if userscripts.org proper ever comes back (it's been down for weeks as of this writing) at http://userscripts.org/scripts/show/127278
