See Jordan's thread for rules, etc. Be aware that I am extremely cagey about revealing personally identifiable details online, but other than that fire away.

An empty Dr. Pepper can.

Because I am aware of the existence of internet stalkers (I spent some time on sex-oriented IRC channels a while back). Also, 15-17 years ago I posted a bunch of stuff on Usenet forums under my real name that I am no longer proud of. Fortunately, a search on my real name turns up far more recent programming/math posts. If a potential employer wanted to check on me on the internet, I would prefer that they only see things that are positive about me. Knowing all that, I prefer to keep two distinct identities online, with my WingedPanther pseudonym kept distinct from my professional/public identity.

It corresponds with how I naturally think. I sort of "Grok" math. Also, CS wasn't a very mature subject when I went to college, and the CS teachers at my college sucked.
