Hi there Mudhooks,
I've been buzzing around the h2g2 Friends' photo album thread, and if my memory does not decieve me, then the addition of 'Dubois' to your nickname is a recent addition? If I'm wrong, it'd be nice just to chat .
Anyway, the only reason I ask is to find out if it's after W.E. Dubois, the African-American civil rights leader in the 1930s?
Nice to meet you in any case.
Roadkill.

No, the Dubois, while it is new to hootoo, is something I have added from time to time. It is an nod to Blanche Dubois in "Streetcar Named Desire" (as well as to my real last name).

I see. I'm studying that period, you see, and it occurred to me that I might have found a fellow enthusiast. I have not read "Streetcar Named Desire", though, but I have meant to for some time.
