A couple of things happened today connecting me to some new people out in the big wide world. I recieved a "woo" from someone on OkCupid (translation: someone thinks I'm vaguely interesting, but can't think of anything to say), which hasn't happened to me before, and it's kinda cool. Pity they're only a 59% match, and not much like me at all really.

Secondly, I got an email from one of the other Tom Parker's - it's a horrifically common name, and every so often I either get an email from one of the others, or from someone asking me if I'm the one that did some random thing. This one considers himself my "bizzaro world double" as he's an arty Macphile. One of these days I'm gonna tour the world and find some of the rest of us. (Given as I'm currently 3rd on a google search for "tom parker", I may get a few more emails like that in the near future)

Yours is definately a somewhat less common name....

I know if i do an image search i can find me on the scifi we site very quickly, but Kate Bowyer is the mother of some famous artist so there are tons of links to him...

No, but I seem to notice the book he wrote about the whole thing repeatedly.

Image search for "Tom Parker" with the quotes has a picture of me from the BITS 2001-2 c'ttee on page 2, next one is on page 6. Given there's 20 pictures/page, that's a lot of non-me pics....
