I just imagine a large team of Reddit Social Advisors perched on the arm of the sofa next to him. "Just type r-a-m-p-a-r-t Zach" >stifles snigger< "Why?" "Oh don't worry, they'll eat it up".

Back in the late 90s, a colleague of mine waged a little campaign to use 'web' rather that www.

In fact quite a few of our public servers were web.example.com shame it never took off.

What's the story behind getting a spider named after you. Did you just get a call from a biologist one day?

And your forest in India, how actively are you involved in it, what are you currently doing with it and what do you hope it becomes?

I travel a fair bit and I get the impression that though the guys at Heathrow take the security very seriously, they like to at least try to be human in most circumstances. US security, by contrast more often falls into the 'I'm really bad-ass' mind-set.

About 25 years ago, we had a back-end log-in on a website that we wanted to protect. We had passwords and whatnot, but wanted a bit more. I came up with the silly idea of manually constructing a cookie and installing it from floppy on only the machines that we wanted people to log in from. The admin page would check for the cookie and throw a 'something's gone wrong' error if it was missing. Not a great idea, but I was quite proud of it at the time.
