John Toner

There's a notice at reception at my hotel asking John Toner to call at the desk. I found myself thinking how, in past ages, people were named after their trades - David Baker, Arthur Butcher and the like. Should be bringing this up to date - oh - wait - we already have Geoff Hacker, Nike Trainer and now John Toner.

Custard:But you don't see Dave Artificial-Inseminator
or Jason Analyst-Programmer very often yet (luckily, who'd want to be in the Analyst-Programmer family tree!)

But I'm looking forward to meeting Perl Scriptor.. she sounds ok to me!
