I googled mine and discovered that I am a village in the Netherlands. Population 1900.

A few months ago I googled my real name and found nothing. I slept well that night.

Cheers

Gary

I did that RB and all I got was all the public service listings for all the jobs that I've been the contact officer for.

Real exciting that was.

Hi,

Alex I got to this point also, but then found there is a path for anyone in reading. The feeling is a transient one.

What do you think you would have been given a different set of happenstances when you were young? After all at that time we are subject to influences we can't always control.

Follow that theme.

I wanted to be a great rock musician but had no talent and was tone-deaf . Then I wanted to be a policeman (now we are talking of a time when I was quite young you see ) but am colourblind. Then I wanted to be a gunsmith but found that no one would give me an apprenticeship. And so on.

However I pursued these in literature, and others besides. It is a sort of existence in the Matrix. Does that make sense or am I raving?

Cheers

les' NGC

Hi All,

I also typed my username into google. The top few were from this site and from then on there were pages and pages of sites in French language mostly dealing with the NGC catalogue and various NGC objects.

Interesting ..?

Best,

Les D

Maybe it is Kev.
Actually I was wondering if they would consider me as an honorary mayor

Worth a shot do you think?

I found a great reference to something I had posted here a while ago on this website

http://home.earthlink.net/~haggisizi...ep-af-test.htm

but as you'll see the webpage owner then went on to take the **** out of my login name here. Wanker!

"An answer is given by a contributor with the moniker "Gargoyle_Steve, Space Explorer" (gee, don't you just love the cutesy names people come up with?).."
