Plenty of small talk around the place before too long, I should imagine. My
3yr-old son is already playing the piano keyboard in Squeak using the mouse,
albeit not very tunefully...

I did suggest "Haskell" for a boy, but my wife vetoed it.

"Ruby Fox" is actually the real name of the superheroine Voltage from Grant
Morrison's Zenith comic strip. I'd forgotten this when we named her, but one
of my friends who spent the late 80s reading the same comics (chiefly
2000AD) as I did reminded me of it when I told him what we'd chosen.

time's a bit short now I'm back at work after paternity leave...
