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.

LEO on why they call me 'Patachon': I lived in Berlin during the Eighties. While there, a French woman asked me what I did for a living. I tried telling her in French that I was on permanent holiday but I just couldn't find the right words: vacances permanantes(?), vacances sans cesse(?).

"Ah", she interrupted, finally understanding, "tu mĂȘns une vie de Patachon."
