h2g2 The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy: Earth Edition

I haven't seen a whole episode of Seinfeld either. Not that I do not want to just that in the UK it was shown at about 11.30pm on BBC2 during the week so not very accessible.

Just like 'The Wire'. All the big trumpeting that the Beeb had got it and what do they do? Show it 5 nights a week at 11.30pm...so as someone with a job I haven't seen it. Looks like my DVD collection will be increasing soon...

hey 3Dots I think it's very funny that you only have 3 dots on your space. What do the dots stand for?

Ug, I should have the explanation ready to cut and paste!

Anyway, I was originally Alfster for many years then I did the usual 'flounce off never to return' due to things happening on site...then I came back (as eveeryone does!) but just as my researcher number as I didn't think it necessary to have a name on the site but that annoyed people as it was just a number they couldn't work out who was posting so I became 'Reseacher Dot Dot Dot' and as I use "..." alot in seemed apt.

Then someone replied to me calling my 3Dots which I liked and hence I eventually got a nickname after all!

I also can't be bothered sticking anything on my PS so 3Dots seemed very apt to put on my PS.

Oh that's interesting I knew there was more to the man than just 3 dots. People are very friendly here I like it.

Why thanks! We are all friendly here...but can get grumpy at times. I prefer to get to know people by talking to them...just in real life. You don't hand someone a CV when you meet someone at a party. you just talk to them. I tend to have a trawl through peoples posts to see what they are like rather than just look at their PS (personal space). Not sure whether you would be interested in this thread. You may have seen it. But they may like some feedback from a new member and a non-UKian to boot. http://www.bbc.co.uk/dna/h2g2/brunel/F19585?thread=6821740 As you will see from the comments on the blog link...we like it here too!

We do indeed. I think many of us are quite passionate about hootoo.

I certainly wouldn't spend hours volunteering in various areas of the site if I weren't convinced it's worth it.

Thanks for the invitation, Milla, but by the 22nd I shall have said 'Hej då' to Sverige. Next time!

(Ooh! The Pimsleur is working. )
