    I chose milan accidentally - I meant to choose turin, after Alan Turin the computer code-cracking genius.

    I might change it now that milan has become synonymous with economic illiteracy, crap cars and tape changing.

    Hang on, wrong ID...

      Reminds me of that quote.

      "When I'm good I'm good. When I'm bad I'm better".

            When I was a kid and 'Laser Quest' opened up in Bristol me and my mates all came up with daft Star Wars inspired names as call signs, very geeky.
            Science isn't about why, it's about why not. You ask: why is so much of our science dangerous? I say: why not marry safe science if you love it so much. In fact, why not invent a special safety door that won't hit you in the butt on the way out, because you are fired. - Cave Johnson

                  A skit on SNL - I added on the 2000 because on a e-mail system a few identical IDs already existed, so I added on 2000 to ensure I did end up with lil_elvis69 or something "silly" like that.

                    Thing I'm most passionate about - snow, or more specifically snowboarding, but said in the colloquial vernacular of my homeland.

                    So snaw. Been using it for online gaming for years, plenty of games have people called snow but yet to meet another snaw!

                      It was my great grandfather's first name...

                      He was known as Angelo and I thought that was his name, but when my Grandmother died I found her birth certificate and her fathers full name.
