There are, in a search of Google.com, 41 people in
Florida, with my initial and name.

I do not go out looking to see if they used "MY' name
on some ISP.  I do a different thing to my name, if
and when I use it.  I add random numbers, or, part of
a zip code, area code, engine displacement in either
SAE or metric size. 119 Cubic Inches might be 1998 cc
displacement, as an example.

xlastname119@xxxxxxx   or, janedoe43800@xxxxxxx  but,
the really good ones are some I have seen like
'runswithscissors@xxxxxxxxx', and
'johnsbrain@xxxxxxxxx' 

There is always room for Jello!  Jellobrain@xxxxxxxxx

I like others, that can seem humorous, so, lighten up,
enjoy!
here's a few more:
linuxiac@xxxxxxxxx 
giglsgirl@xxxxxxxxx
abigamouth@xxxxxxxxx

I am running Whax (Whoppix on Slax) that is pretty
cool, at 700Mb on a LiveCD ISO.

My pocket cds are the 49Mb DSL 2.0 that is a GREAT
demo for customers and staff, in stores,  and, a 205
Mb Slax-Kill Bill pocket distro on mini-cd.
