Hmmm, and on Star Trek the replicators are the things that make food. I was going to make a joke but I can't really think of one. Never mind.

Trashcan has been my screenname for a while now. I met a guy with a screenname of Trashcan once and I about fell out of my chair laughing. So, I adopted it as my own eventually. It is definitely one of the most original that I've run across!

mine is "hamish" . Its my name. and very few people seem to share the name. therefore it is quite a good name for forum etc.

It is in lower case because Linux is case sensitive and I tend to leave everything in lower case to make finding things easier!

There was a character on the very first Pee Wee Herman special named Hammy. He was a nerdy kid who ate ham sandwiches all the time. I think of him when I see your name. LOL! Not that you are a nerdy guy who eats ham sandwiches, heh heh. But then again, I don't know you. Maybe you are. LOL!

spudge = spudge... Like the word fudge, but with a sp'a sound at the beginning...

It's not a real word. Actually my sister's fiancé came up with it. He said something about a sponge, and I thought he said spudge. When I questioned him as to what spudge meant, he said something to the effect of, I don't know but you pretty much are a spudge.

I used it as the name of my free email service way back in the day for lack of anything better. It was the second domain I ever purchased, and the first which I ran my own server for. So it's kind of dear to my heart.

I go by two names: Styric and Admin. You can guess how I got the name Admin on my sites but you may have a little trouble with the other. The Styrics are a race from a David Eddings series of books which are extremely skilled with magic and the like. Sice I was reading it at the time I just opened to a random page and stuck down my finger and there it was.

When people read Styric they pronounce it "Sti-ric" which kind of sounds like a girly name (I'm a guy to the bone but I'm not going to tell you wich one ) but I pronounce it "Sty-ric" which is how it's spelt.
