Explain your forum name!
Posted by: Markus S on 14 March 2004
Some people on this forum have their full name as their forum name (myself, obviously, included). Others go by just their first name with or without an initial to separate them from the other Daves or Mikes.
Then again, some members have forum names which, at least at first sight, seem to have no relation to names, my current favourite being long-time-dead.
Would those of you who were more creative than I in choosing your forum name please explain yourselves?

Joe, can I just congratulate you on that truly wonderful graph.
Thank you. You may also appreciate this graph, with the same data plotted as polar coordinates. As you can see, you want to stay well clear of the graph's bullseye -- the area of perfect mullitude.

Hi Markus
Just found the thread and since I seem to be "in vogue" I feel it only fair to explain things.
Long-Time-Dead is a bit like my attitude towards life. Never reckless, but I fully accept this is no dress rehersal. I enjoy everything I do, rarely get upset or depressed and treat people the way I like to be treated. After all, we're all a "long-time-dead"
This might sound a little trite to some but it works for me !
Another great idea I had for it was "better pissed off than pissed on". Cue the moderators for that one !

So, do you commute daily from Kent to Worcester, Massachussetts or vise versa?????
Computers are supposed to work on 1's and 0's - in other words "Yes" or "No" - why does mine frequently say "Maybe"?......

mykel came about way back in school because there was another person with my initials "mjc" and another chap with the same first name and last initial. So Michael became mykel, it started in the programming lab and has wormed its way into on-line life. Not used in "real" life anymore, wonder why?

michael

My mates call me either H or HTK. The former seemed a bit short.
Cheers
