About

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.

The nickname came from a course I did about 20 years ago - not really current but generally available as a username on the Interweb. I have been on-line (outside of university accounts) since 1994 - if you count a COMPUSERVE account as online. Since then, a few years overseas has dictated the best way to keep in contact with family/friends and local news is the internets. Consider stuff spilled.
