I understand the limited longevity, but in general, is there anything to say about that?
That is something that's searchable and can be found thanks to the various sites that collect information about individuals. One of the things I recommend to people is to use things that aren't easily tied to you.

For example, I consider myself Buddhist but if I use a phrase or quote out of the Torah or Koran or a quote from Brian Green's "The Hidden Reality", that'd be unexpected and not something easily known about me.
