My username is one I've had for a while now, I don't know why.. probably can't be bothered coming up with another.

I came up with it some years back for a runescape account. Most people think it means that I own in the sense of possess a demon, but I actually meant in the sense of pwn them.

Then I found out Daemon meant benevolent spirit.  :'(
Have you read "His Dark Materials"  by Philip Pullman? That's what I thought you were referencing.

The av probably probably doesn't need an explanation.

My username is that of Brad Pitt's character from Twelve Monkeys.  He had a line I loved: "It doesn't matter what I see or you see or they see.  There's only truth...either you see it or you don't."
That which can be asserted without evidence, can be dismissed without evidence.

    Oh snap.
The very powerful and the very stupid have one thing in common. Instead of altering their views to fit the facts, they alter the facts to fit their views... which can be very uncomfortable if you happen to be one of the facts that needs altering.
