User Names Not a joke or fun but where else to start this thread

Like some e-mail address's I often wonder what evokes some of the user names ?

Is solarman a whiz on solar energy cells ? Does Zippy watch Fireball XL5 or was that Zooney on his way home?

I will start the ball rolling - I call myself "Macabethiel" after McCabe Thiele Method used to calculate the height of distilation columns or H.E.T.P's.

I am a qualified Chemical Engineer who never got to do any engineering and so as not to waste my 4 years at Uni: I started using engineering names as passwords etc.

As I am a poor speller at the best of time it was shortened to be what it now is.

Do you have a story to tell ?
