athelindIn a blog comment just now, I almost referred to SF author Charles Stross as "Unca Charlie".
To remind the linkophobic, "'Unca' is an honorific that refers to an individual whose words or writing have had a marked influence on Your Obedient Serpent's philosophical development."
... It also carries obvious connotations of "Older, Wiser Mentor".
Charlie Stross is almost exactly my age. In fact, he's eight months younger than I am.
I'm just sayin'.
