I am ecstatic to announce a new Happy Mutant on the scene: Poesy Emmeline Fibonacci Nautilus Taylor Doctorow. Hatched at home, in a pool, this morning, in London, weighing 9 lbs and 6 oz. All bits correct and accounted for. Already stolen the hearts of all who see her.Those Londoners, always flaunting their paternity leave. If you'd like to get a gift, they are registered at Sourceforge.net.Consider me on paternity leave until further notice
