Dr Bates Gill
Just a musing - watching BBC Four News and they've got a strategic analyst (or something) being interviewed about the international security (read "military") implications of the fact that today China sent a man into space - joining the US and the former soviet union as the only countries to have done so.
I found myself puzzling over the guy's name for a few minutes until I realised why - his name is Bates Gill. Not a million miles away from Bill Gates....
Small world... I stumbled on your blog and saw this reference -- Bates Gill is actually my cousin. Now I'll be thinking of the "Bill Gates" transposition whenever I say his name!
