The forever mystery of Tim's 1995 hack

What was the meaning of the names of gamers from 1995? I have been thinking through the names I can recall from the time period in which Jennifer made a police report.

I do not actually know what application she thought was attacked. She terrorized me.

Today I'm thinking about any application I used which had user names in chats. There was a man who would call himself Tombstone, Stella and  Toenailzz. I am not sure why he came to mind. He was French Quebec I believe. This seemed like a strange gamer handle in Westwood chat.

I am pretty sure someone who would work in KMS and in Tim's friends (who were they on the Internet?) would have been reading this at the time 1995:

"There was endless debate in the Middle Ages about the hierarchy of knowledges, with philosophy claiming to be the "queen." We long ago gave up that fruitless argument. There is no higher or lower knowledge. When the patient's complaint is an ingrown toenail, the podiatrist's knowledge, not that of the brain surgeon, controls--even though the brain surgeon has received many more years of training and commands a much larger fee"  - Peter Drucker

This would be the kind of philosophical content people in his classes would read at University of St. Thomas in 1992-1995 

Someone studying the advancement of Knowledge Management and societal /political impacts  is possibly why one person named themselves Toenailzz. 

It was kind of funny how an advertiser was following most topics "toenails" as I came across this, publishing an "Ingrown" ad.

Why were Westwood Chats never indexed? Seems like a shame.


My brother never told me what names, in what application he was seeing with Jennifer. It was a big deal she had taken the topic to the police saying he was being hacked.

 

It is so rare that I ever came across philosophical conversation on the Internet. It was at college, with Tim (I miss him), with occasional boyfriends, or at school. There is no being "schooled" on the Internet. It is mostly noise.

My brother would have actually been a funny teacher. So much bad was happening and I wish I had been there with him to process our grief, and his guilt together. I know now he was falsely accused of something so serious by Jennifer it snapped him. She did this to all of us. She made it clear herself in the call while a man was chasing me around in 2019. She has no child. It was a philisophical argument. He did not want to tell my father. It really messed him up. He thinks he has a baby somewhere  He was already under too much stress, possibly concussion from the car wreck.
