Not Frequently Asked Question:
Q: Why 'dimwit'?

A: Dimwit Flathead is the name of an obscure but still important character in an obscure but still important game series called Zork, made by Infocom. Dimwit himself was a powerful and fairly stupid king, the last of his line.
The name has pretty much nothing to do with me, but makes me remember a fun bunch of games and proves a neat way to make myself known to the few other avid gamers who remember text adventures.
