  I'm on the openzaurus-users list and this guy Eddie sends these emails
  where his friendly name is:
</p>
<pre class="code">
   eD\\/ARd0 F/\\KEn^M3
</pre>
<p>
  I'd post examples, but SF.net has a terrible archive system.
</p>
<p>
  It puzzles me as to why anyone would ever want a friendly name like that.
  When has l337-speak actually been elite?
