Horace.....
Horace. You know, as in 'Horace goes skiing', and 'Horace and the spiders', those fantastic games on the ZX Spectrum. Or a shortening of Horatio, as in Horatio Hornblower a favourite fiction hero of mine (although I was never quite sure about the romantic involvement in the novels). Fantastic sea battles of the Napoleonic era.
I have resurrected the name from way back in my student days at Durham when I used to spend hours talking to people on line. Gone are those happy drunken days in the PC room at Van Mildert after more than a few jars in the bar (80p a pint when I first arrived - those were the days).

"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."
