Walter,

I think you are in the lead

Just did a search on you and google came up with

"Showing matches 1-30 of . . . . . . 298,000 !!!

I gave up on the 8th page, (all you) and I have no reason to doubt most of the others are attributed to you also.

Well done.
Now that IS famous.

Best Regards,
Ian.

I'm in last place

I tried my name and came back with zero hits and the wording " Try to narrow down your search to eliminate all but worthless losers".

So I tried that.......

Gee, I'm famous with that terminology!!!

John "worthless loser" Dixon

P.S. My mommy loves me....honest.

John,
Do not despair.
here is a famous good looking namesake . . . . .

Type in "bonsai" after your name, and its a good list.

Regards,
Ian.

You should get thousands of hits on a German google search.

apparently there is a pretty famous poetry critic by the name of Robert Potts, so he got most of the hits for my name. There was also a graphic designer and a few other random people that hit before I came up.

Robert Potts + Bonsai is pretty much all me.

I did a search and ended up staring at my elfwood (fantasy art site) stuff from four years ago 0.o weirded me out, especially since there were a few more comments, one of them pretty nasty. I haven't seen any of that work in.. well, four years, its hiding around here somewhere. (ann paquette)
