flj529. Yep, that's me!

"FLJ" stands for "Fred L. Jones", which is a meaningless pseudonym I borrowed from an old friend. "529" is the square of the number 23, which is another reference I acquired through another old friend of mine (and originates in the writings of Robert Anton Wilson and William S. Burroughs: see 23 Enigma)
