Quite true....

I'd REALLY love to see the dictionary my email address was generated from.

...

If they sent off 200-300 trillion emails to iiNet then I'll call your claim 
correct, there
is a slim chance my username popped up.  I can't imagine getting a great 
hit rate
doing it that way.

If they target common words and names etc as you said then my address wasn't
gained that way any I'll stick with my explanation or one of the many other
conspiracy theories I have been hatching in my inner city apartment.

Gotta go, start my taxi driving shift soon.
