The Other Geoff Foxes

I suppose I'm lucky to have GeoffFox.com as my own. As obscure as my name might seem, there are lots of us Geoff Foxes around. More than I ever realized!

There's Geoff Fox who's a newspaper reporter in Florida. Tampa Geoff, you'll be glad to know, I specifically exclude your byline from my "Geoff Fox" Google search. Otherwise, you'd overwhelm me.

There's an author named Geoff Fox who lives (or lived) in Brooklyn, NY. He owns GeoffreyFox.com. Damn! I could have had that too. To say he is a prolific author is an understatement!

Also up there in the impressivosity (not a word, but it should be) Dr. Geoffrey Fox from Indiana University. Dr. Fox is a professor (whereas I am closer to Gilligan) in the Department of Computer Science, School of Informatics. What exactly is informatics?

The most famous Geoff Fox is probably the guy who owns Fox Racing--well known in motocross circles. He could probably buy and sell us all.

This all comes up because my forward searching brought me news of Geoff Fox who did quite well at the Worcestershire UK Golf Club's Captain's Day. Good at golf? He's no relative of mine.

I grew up thinking I had this name to myself. Another childhood fantasy gone bust.
