Hehehehe, nice! Well I must admit, there are only so many words in the English language, and if you use one as your nickname, it's only a matter of x+1 number of people (where x is the number of words in the English language) before someone has copied someone else. And I'm not sure people would use "defenestration" as their nickname, or many other words for that matter.

ohhh please russ , can i change my nick to "defenestration" ...LOL.
UUUUU , what does defenestration mean ?
An act of throwing someone or something out of a window.
n. [mythically from a traditional Czech
assasination method, via SF fandom] 1. Proper karmic retribution for
an incorrigible punster. "Oh, ghod, that was _awful_!" "Quick!
Defenestrate him!" 2. The act of exiting a window system in order
to get better response time from a full-screen program. This comes
from the dictionary meaning of `defenestrate', which is to throw
something out a window. 3. The act of discarding something under
the assumption that it will improve matters. "I don't have any disk
space left." "Well, why don't you defenestrate that 100 megs worth
of old core dumps?" 4. Under a GUI, the act of dragging something
out of a window (onto the screen). "Next, defenestrate the MugWump
icon." 5. The act of completely removing Micro$oft Windows from a
PC in favor of a better OS (typically Linux).

It took me eight hours to get an account on Yahoo. All the names I tried were taken. Angelique LaRoux, Elijahrain. Bahamut's Favor. WinterReign. Southerncross, Samuele, Dragonscythe, PhoenixRising,Darkbishop, Elric Samuel Strongheart von Shephardlord , Ect. or just a few names I use. It is hard to be original and unique. P.S. the Elric name is the name of my German Shepherd. I ended up calling him Booboo. Go figure.
