  JRL
       
          {J. Random} Loser.  The names JRL and JRN were sometimes used
          as example names when discussing a kind of user ID used under
          {TOPS-10} and {WAITS}.  They were understood to be the
          initials of (fictitious) programmers named "J. Random Loser"


          and "J. Random Nerd".  For example, if one said "To log in,
          type log one comma jay are en" (that is, "log 1,JRN"), the
          listener would have understood that he should use his own
          computer ID in place of "JRN".
