5thWiggle was my user name on another forum BM (before Mobileread). The handle evolved after the birth of our twin girls, both of whom quickly became colicky. Worse, the distress one was feeling amplified the other's own distress in a Pete Townshend-esque wailing feedback loop. Many sleepless nights were spent, pacing up and down with squalling infants singing "Rock-a-bye Your Bear" in a bleary montone. After months of this, we were both exhausted. One night, my wife looked at me and a said "I was going to ask you a question but I can't remember what it was. I'm so tired, I can't even remember your name." I mumbled something about not being sure myself, but after all the singing I thought I must be the fifth member of the Wiggles.
