When I first started chatting on the internet (many many moons ago) I needed to come up with a user name. So many of the obvious ones were taken and I didn't just want to add a number onto the end. So, I took two of my interests, cats and computers, joined 'em together, pfutzed the spelling and 'cats and computers' became 'catzenpewters'. I use it everywhere, and I like it 'cuz I've never run into a duplicate and had to use a different name (I can't remember more than one!).

My name is Neil, which is based off the Irish word for champion which is oddly enought Niadh.

Cool name! It sounds very German to me. Was that intentional?

That's funny, because in Aliens it's spelt "Vasquez", so you must have non-existant association creation disorder :D

No, I didn't intend the name to sound german, though I guess it does. I just wanted to have some fun with the spelling :)
