User:Prof beard

As I've now been here for a few weeks and it looks like I'll probably be fairly active, I thought I'd say a bit about myself.

"Prof beard"? Well it's my usual name on internet communities which are not directly related to my professional activities. "Prof" because I'm UK Professor (actually I now hold the title of "Emeritus Professor" - awarded to me by my University on my -semi- retirement) in what most people would call "eLearning", and "beard" because I have a VERY large beard...

I've been a lifelong SF reader, and have amassed a sizeable collection. I have a particular collector's interest in John Brunner and have some very rare stuff by him.

I'm working my way through all my stuff, verifying, adding and updating. When I get to my reference material, I'll compile a list of it on here...
