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.

My nickname is from a Timothy Zahn book series. Please note that it's the name of the original guy, not the insane clone.

I'm a relative latecomer to the Internet. I wasn't hooked until my first DikuMUD character. The condition was exacerbated by lurking on infidels.org, and nosing around with Carracho.
