    What your screen name means to you. How and why you chose it?
    Some are pretty obvious in opinion but I would like to know why you chose that one in particular.

    My screen name is ReighnStorm: I chose it because of how a rain storm makes me feel at the moment it happens. Whether it's late at night and the sky is lit every few minutes because of lightning or early in the morning like now when the wind howls and the sound of rain hitting the earth as it replenishes its soul and the rage of the storm in its voice. I spelled it Reighn because of the word reign which means dominance or influence and adding storm to it meant that I see myself as a naturally powerful influential, dominating person with the power to replenish the soul.

    ~water~

    My favourite element. I chose it intuitively, without knowing why exactly, at that time.


    ~water~

    It has no shape, but can take on any, and leave it again, and still be itself.
    Water is unfathomable, and so is identity.

    Geodesic: the shortest distance between two points.

    I like geometry, and it's the first word that occurred to me.

    In random occasions, I suddenly stop and ask myself: Why things around me are that way (no, back when I was thinking of a nick to have, I'm not thinking of philosophy)

    My name seemed fitting for a science site and usage shook my complacency about the nature of things. Kind of science and philosophy rolled into one for me. You have the cold hard facts of chemical science and the completely unknown realm of the mind in my name I guess.

    peace

    Mine is pretty superficial.

    Malkav - Abbreviated "malkavian". My favorite clan in "vampire:the masquerade". Malkavians are a clan of vampires who are all irreverably mentally ill in one way or another, as a side effect of their embrace. They also possess an uncanny insight into "what's really going on", which many other vampires find disturbing, because you can never tell when a malkav is just rambling, or when he's acting as oracle.

    Punk - I love punk rock.

    Onefinity, a "number" that I made up. It is 1 raised to the power of infinity. Mathematically that just means 1, but to me, the process of the multiplying and always getting a new 1 represents the nature of the cosmos.

    Cottontop was my nickname when I was a kid because my hair is quite blonde and soft like cotton.

    3000 because I would love to see what the universe is like in the year 3000.

    spuriousmonkey because I am not a genuine monkey.

    I am an ape.

    And I didn't really think about the name to join sciforums. It was already the name of my alter ego on my website.

    Ta... Thanks
    bla... the debates
    rid... annihilate
    dim... my ignorance

    I just thought of that.

    No, it's simply that when I registered on to sciforums, Trilok Gurtu was playing on my jukebox and I thought, ah tabla rhythm, but I put riddim as in British black street slang.
