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.

If you must know, it was originally a compromise between my near zodiac affection for my sun sign and the county of origin of an ex-fiancé for a shared isp account; but what cemented my bond with the name was the discovery that it was used as the root substitute in astronomy for the somewhat problematic terms involving the exploration of our solar system's second planet.
