Quick answer to an interesting question

The short answer is no.

The long answer is that I was using NeoWayland online long before George W. Bush was elected to office. I was also using it before The Matrix was released, so it has nothing to do with that either.

While it is not my only online identity, it is my primary one and the one that I use in many Pagan forums.

The prefix neo means new. Wayland (sometimes spelled Weyland) was a legendary smith. I prefer to work with ideas and words rather than metal, but the idea is the same. New Idea Smith = NeoWayland. It has other meanings to me, but those are rooted in esoterica and I don't think I could explain well.

Despite my reluctant support for the War on Terror, there really isn't that much else I share with the average neoconservative.
