I first had to think up a screen name while I was in
the dorms at university. I had just connected my new
computer to the network, and I had to pick a name for
the PC. I decided to pick a memorable character from
the recently completed Ringworld trilogy, by Larry Niven.
Then I found
Slashdot, and Kuro5hin, and started to spend quite a lot
of time online. I used my computer's name just for fun.
To make my life easier, and because it
seemed honest, I use the same nick at every site I join.

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).

or How to display code and escape characters
are good places to start.
