Got up, dressed, went to work etc.etc.etc. .... came home.
Started to read PCW magasine ... found article about Douglas Adams (superhero and all round good egg). Read (with horror) about www.h2g2.com - can't understand why no one told me about it !
Am now a registered Researcher with the catchy number 51290. Do I need a name/nick name (such as Nick ?) ? Answers on a postcard please.
Douglas is obviously in league with my telephone company, as I'm likely to run up some expensive phone bills now !
Started new conversation called "Why wasn't I informed?" Drats - 11 hours later and still no replies !

Something minimalist like Ant ? Or should I go for something elaborate, or something related toThe Guide ?

Ant Posted Jul 31, 1999
Something that relates to you. Ant is my name, that's I'm called it at work and even my Mum calls me Ant. So a nickname that sums up who you are would be good.

It would take a book to sum me up.
Ouch ! I've just banged my head getting through the door

I don't think you need the number really, anyone can click on your name to find that out, but I like the name. Is it after the Womble
