That's cool. I'm not a big fan of YIM though. I don't know too many people that use it. Most of them, unfortunately use AOL or AIM. I'd rather use ICQ but no one I know uses that either. :D You would think, AOL owning ICQ, that they would connect both networks.

One of the curiosities of life that intrigued Mr. Einstein, which he was not able to solve, was just why couldn't people be in two places at once. So, my nickname is a bit of a play on that perplexing duality, in that here is an eminently renowned scientist and yet when one is referred to as "eh, einstein!" its typically meant in a derogatory manner. It's also pretty sweet that the "a" in my "aeinstein" can also denote his first initial. Next to The Lord, my dearly beloved Pops and my twin Bro, I hold Mr. Einstein in the highest of regards.

Nice origin! I made up the name "inscissor" back in 6th grade. I entered the science fair and did a project on dinosaurs. In my report I wrote about the T-Rex having "inscissors" thinking it was spelled correctly (it's spelled incisor). Anyways, no one said anything, and I was one of the winners. So obviously I thought it was spelled correctly and continued spelling it like that for years to come. I never really used the word (how often do you use the word incisor anyways) until one time, I think it was 11th or 12th grade I looked it up. I couldn't find it. I did however find the word "incisor" which meant "tooth." Then I realized what a dope I was. I have to admit, the word "inscissor" is a lot cooler than "incisor." I've used "inscissor" for a million accounts and I guess it just stuck. :D

Ok my turn !!!

My sophomore year of college I decided to get customized plates for my car. And I was hangin' out in the CSC lounge trying to think of something, and Vinnie and someone else (forget who) were naming random stuff and were like "Hey, how 'bout CSCGAL" as a complete joke and I was like "I like it!"

So I got CSCGAL plates for my car and everyone laughed at me from then on. Seriously ... the plates came first. Then I decided to start using "cscgal" for everything on the 'net.

Then when I originally set up TechTalk Forums I had my handle set to "cscgal" ... and Dan was like "hey, can't you be more creative?" So I changed it to "TechTalkGal" as a joke.

Just recently switched back to cscgal - hey, it's meee!

:D Dan! i was wondering where you got that nick from! that's funny & 1 of those things that in someway can - and does! - happen 2all of us! kewl that u kept the nick, tells me u have a really good sense of humor & feet planted on the ground!

hmmm CSCGAL or TechTalkGal, CSCGAL or TechTalkGal, CSCGAL or TechTalkGal... aaahhhh, a rose by any other name would be just as nice (& PRETTY! ;) ), i like'm both! hmmm, but seeing how CSCGAL makes so much sense u mustve beat a lot of girls (well, i should hope no guys, but...!) to that nick shows ur ontop of ur game - kool beans! :D

Thanks for the compliment Paul. I still couldn't believe when I heard that "some girl" (before I met Dani) got the license plate "CSCGAL." I just couldn't believe it!

they do connect all you do is enter the aim name to your icq list and you can talk to them through icq!!!
