Nah, the key word there is "hide". Note that eric uses esr a lot...... ;)

For example I always use errant or errantx (and sometimes tmorton166) as my handle. But it's not a hiding thing; it's mostly about ease. Finding my real name, for example, isn't particularly hard and I make little pains to hide it. That is, I think, the difference.
