i even replied :-) meme<>meme, not caring about to who you
talk... :P (i am tired fighting with old intel machines, i
found many bugs, and found out all will work slower than i
thought before (nah, technological development of wireless
networking is still too slow, prices're too high, i am still
stuck with phucked modem, and stting in my room pressing keys)

indeed :-) idea for this nick came when wondered about
homogenous work of internet, and autosopher (adress means
information), so if i write e-mail as a junkie, the non-drugged
part of me (internet) is :
1) dressed in interferencing suit (noone can really see who
BobArctor is)
2) is a cop - is monitoring all my moves (logging)
3) this a mentally split (one halve is on wetware, other on
siliconware
4) Fred don't know what Bob is doing, but Bob is following Fred
while not understanding that Fred is indeed also a Bob

rather there are no coincidences in lifestyle (altrough i
(rarely) sit on #drugstore on ircnet and chat with junkies on
#hyperreal (altrough they don't trip nowadays))
i just had to name this computer somehow.
