About mePeter Cobcroft is in his late thirties and is jaded enough for a sixty year old. A fan of speculative fiction and longtime gamer and dark age re-enactor, he works in the National Library. He is often thought of as the “go-to guy” for computer application problems or queries in his area - that area being the best library webservice in the world. He finds this troubling and secretly hopes the rest of the world will get their act together soon. You can find various opinions of his with any search for his nom d’internet of Curufea and he maintains a website of dubious worth for experimentation and storing of gaming stuff. He’s quite proud of his Farscape Music Videos though, as he won an award for one - even though it didn’t have crinkly fiddley bits around the edges. He regularly checks both yahoo and gmail for email when he’s bored.
