found this when I was checking up on your likes and dislikes so I could get your fan club rolling with style. 
can't seem to pin you down, mr. mysterious. you are very smart and very quiet. have only gleaned a few likes from your postings. am going to read this(I only got a couple of paragraphs, so far) with a hot cup of coffee and a bowl of popcorn. thanks for posting it! consider fiction central, when you get the time, will you?

This was a forum on Ask H2G2 a researcher called Knifee started it off
I really enjoyed taking part in this story and at some point I decided to collect each posting and save them in MS Word. I never expected H2G2 to go off-line and and recently some of the researchers involved wondered if the thread had returned from moderation. (it was rather long) and the answer is still no (it's due to re-appear sometime around the 1st week in october, I think...)
So I decided to write up the forums I had saved as a guide Entry and H2G2 - Storytime could start up again!
When the forum re-appears I'll credit all of those involved.

oooh nice one. 
is the nurse one of the cryo-clownz? a disgruntled ex-employee perhaps. oh yes, I've missed this.
Good point though I've made a new thread adding new postings on the page.

Knifee! 
How could I not?
"we used to do this thing in class: pass a bit of paper round the room and by the end of the lesson you'd have a complete story - I thought I'd try ther same thing here.

Once upon a time a tall dark-haired man called Bob...."
And the rest they say is history.
Had some meetings with Shazz and we are being syndicated in the weekly editions of The Post!

We'll see how things go but hopefully we might even get the old girl up and running again!
