          • I corrupted a reversed short form of my first name.
          • I had just found the Merriam-Webster OnLine Dictionary.
          • I had just watched an Austin Powers movie.
          • I was reading a lot of H. P. Lovecraft's short stories.

          I don't really remember anymore. Just picked something and stuck with it... :)

            kinda like me - except i know how i got mine. i wanted a new hotmail address, but didnt know what to choose. At the time, i had a picture of an eclipse as my desktop wallpaper, so i chose TheEclypse, except i spelt it with a Y, because it looks better that way. :)

              I don't think I have ever read any kind of license agreement ever. I make an attempt, but usually only get as far as word 10. I once ventured onto the second paragraph of one and boy, I saved so much money on sleeping tablets. Simon "This is an equal opportunities airline. The pilot is blind." Sonork ID 100.10024
