BV> Yes, I know about "twit" filters, but I don't want to put
anyone on a
BV> "twit" list because even a total moron can be fun sometimes. Witness
BV> Tony Antoniou, even he was fun :)

BL> I *thought* I recognised that name from somewhere! Is he the guy in
BL> the Sunday Telegraph, last weekend?

Jeeze, really go for the high quality media what ? |-)

BL> They had an article of computer wizards, with a photograph of Tony
BL> Antoniou as a `self-taught techno whiz'. I quote:

BL> "When Tony was 14 he landed a part-time job as a sales assistant in a
BL> Lewisham Electronics company where his `techno-wise' reputation grew
BL> rapidly..."

BL> And here comes the really good part:

BL> "In a few weeks I had learned how to repair TVs, VCRs, refrigerators,
BL> and other household items," he said.

BL> ROFL! A 14-year-old kid learns all about service in a fortnight!

BL> "I guess I was born with a mind for electronics..."

BL> There was a lot of other funny stuff in the article, but that was the
BL> bit that made me fall off the chair and pee in my pants.

BL> Is this *your* Tony Antoniou?

Sounds very much like it, right down to the rather inflated idea of his
own importance |-)

Ended up working for Sony, that would be the total proof.
