Shellers home

smiley - fish

Hello, I'm Shellers and welcome to my page - it may not look much, but it's home.

Gold medalThis is the medal Abi presented to me (on the night, she also presented me with a small bust - ahem - but that's another story) as the first ever winner of her prestigious "Sid James Memorial Unoffical h2g2 award for the most creative use of innuendo in a thread by a researcher without breaking the terms and conditions" award. Apparently, the cheque's still in the post.

Smileys :-)I live and work in Scunthorpe, North Lincolnshire (UK) and have been commuting regularly between here and Cambridge, where I often conducted field research for the guide - although more recently I transferred my research to Stratford upon Avon. I've been a fan of the Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy series of books since they were first published.

A computer in a bin My main interests in life are computers, cycling, walking, reading and I love France and all things French, so if you'd like to be bored to death on the subject, please email me - or if you just feel like being bored to death anyway, then still email me.

An alien I'm also a member of the h2g2 Researchers group - doing our bit towards the SETI@home Project, which uses otherwise idle PCs to form the largest distributed processing project in the world in the search for extra-terrestrial intelligence, and have now completed 7,500 work units. Why not sign up at setiathome.berkeley.edu? You never know - you just might be the one who makes the big discovery! Failing that, why not join SILE@home - the search for intelligent life on earth?

In the meantime, please feel free to contact me - on ICQ # 50765237, Odigo # 4297574 or by email at [email protected] as I love hearing from people - although no riff-raff please - or if you're interested, my web site is waffling.co.uk

"The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy is a wholly remarkable book. It has been compiled and recompiled many times and under many different editorships. It contains contributions from countless numbers of travellers and researchers."
