Sweet! Is it left handed?

Obviously an space nerd joke. Besides, Zerk pwns, as Arthur C. Clarke is one of the greatest writers of all times, with a slight exception maybe to Isaac Asimov (who wrote the foundation series.)

I'd never heard of that. My nick started out as "Berserker". Then it changed to "Berzerker". Then it was "Zerker". and now it's "Zerk". Thats the origin of my nick to me. Dont know about any of them book thingies.

Ah, for Arthur C Clarke, I was referring to your sig. And for Asimov, I was referring to your user name, as it is a name of a character in one of his short stories. Sorry, I have uber sci-fi geek in my blood.
