it's a shortened form of a character's name from a trashy story i wrote years ago. i liked this character the best and always wanted to give him a sequel, if only i hadn't let him die in the last scene.

From Wikipedia: An astrolabe is a historical astronomical instrument used by astronomers, navigators, and astrologers. Its many uses include locating and predicting the positions of the Sun, Moon, planets, and stars; determining local time given local latitude and vice-versa

Mine is the name of the fairy tale character starring in Hans Christian Andersen's "The Little Mermaid".
I chose it as a replacement for another Hans Christian Andersen character "the ugly duckling" which was my name for a long time. And I had to because I after some years' absence forgot my password to Base Camp which I founded in 2004 in the old UD days. Hello Jean Pierre, maybe you remember me as anne-lise - my real name? |

Mine came about when I rescued a Daxie pup from being put down by the owners. They were gapping it to the UK. At the time, I wasn't allowed to call her a rug-rat, so in the interests of Political Correctness... Carpet Rodent!
---------------------------------------- And no... I'm not one of the Politically-Correct!! 
Some look on me as an institution... Some think I should be in one!

My real first name is Erkko so I picked 3rkko as my alias when I signed up for the first Boinc project. Simple as that.
