Harsh, yo' havin' a laff, Fiery? Were you around at the time in question? Camel56 and co were amongst the worst things to happen to this place - worse even than SW\BLE, as I said elsewhere he's almost reached the regrettable-but-inevitable criteria.

I thought you were having a go at me for starting a similar thread actually...if I knew about this one I wouldn't have

That is awesome. But also cruel, trying to get students in trouble for laughing out loud in the exam room.

There's also a historian called Michael Hunt. I was the only one to laugh in my tutorial though

Funniest non-fictional name I can think of is Napoleon Einstein. Pulls his weight in the IPL, as it happens.
