I enjoy many of the nicknames used here. some are obvious but others are not. what does your nickname mean?

solidus

n : a punctuation mark (/) used to separate related items of information

It can also be used to represent the middle ground. I first saw it
in Metal Gear Solid (1), at the end of the game: one of the players
is code-named Solidus and (lo) happens to be the middle brother.
He has the qualities of both younger and older brothers and none
of their flaws.

:p

Xenophillia (love of the unknown, correct me if I'm wrong)

It was actually named after a star system that you have to travel to in an old star trek game--I think it was 25th anniversary--anyway, it was just a coincidence that I could make an acronym out of it. Don't quite know what to do with the five though:bugeye:

I live on the moon. You should have heard them laugh when I asked If it was possible for me to get ASDL, 'how far from the center of the city?' 'hmm, oh I'd say 384,400 km perhaps'
So I have to be happy with what I've got dial up, at about 0,1 bits per second.

Well UCITIAN is not an abreviation of any thing nor its word from any language... so what is it? Intresting question! hummm.... let me see:confused:

okie... UCIT is the name of the department of Punjab University where i study. UCIT stands for University College of Information Technology and thus UCITIAN means some one belonging to UCIT. :cool:
