Do you know Tim's screen name?

[badstar]

Bizarre IM conversation I had just now:

[23:54] IconicSalmon: Hi.
[23:54] fuego4496: hello
[23:55] fuego4496: do i know you?
[23:56] IconicSalmon: doubtful
[23:56] fuego4496: ah...may i ask, of curiousity how you happened upon my screen name?
[00:00] fuego4496: did you IM me for a reason? Or should I just wish you a good night and close the window?
[00:01] IconicSalmon: I saw you today, I liked your socks but I was to shy to say anything
[00:02] fuego4496: obviously you are just making this up or confusing me with someone else because i didn't see anyone that i didn't know today, didn't give my screen name out...and was wearing plain white cotton socks
[00:03] IconicSalmon: wait, aren't you tim?
[00:03] fuego4496: no...
[00:03] fuego4496: fraid not
[00:03] IconicSalmon: Damn, do you know his sn?
[00:04] fuego4496: Uh....I've met about a hundred tim's in my life
[00:04] fuego4496: but I don't believe i know a screen name for any
[00:04] IconicSalmon: I'll ask Chris, she'll know
[00:04] fuego4496: uh, ok
[00:04] IconicSalmon: Thanks anyway
[00:04] fuego4496: sure.


So...I've noticed that since I started using AIM on gmail at work, I've beeng etting some random IM's from people either thinking I'm someone else, or in a few cases, I get the message, but they seem to be carrying a conversation with someone else.

However, when I had the above exchange, I was on Trillian, with gmail signed out of AIM.

Anyone had any weird things like this lately?
