It's called "topic drift" and it's really quite common. You still haven't answered the question re your choice of moniker: "deliberate or coincidence?" Pushing a little topic drift of your own, maybe? That text laughter is starting to sound a little nervous.

Sorry for laughing, but really.

Anyone care to look at the start of the thread and notice that I was asked for the name of the book. All I wanted was tips on virtual learning, but the secret police in their own self importance wished otherwise.

Next.

Why socrates. Why not. A very popular name. Inspired many people. Ever wondered why you get companies called Amazon ,get software called copernic[us] or get helicopters called cobra's

Maybe it's because someone used a popular name, place or thing from the past or present to label their baby.
