They like me! They really, really like me!
But seriously - thanks to everybody who voted for me in Atomic’s Issue #100 poll.
I could only be more pleased if my runaway victory actually won me a prize.
(Perhaps I’ll get a mouse!)

Yes, but how do you feel about the "James May of Atomic" bit?
I always figured you were closer to a sort of Ben Goldacre/Oracle of Apollo hybrid.

So being the "James May of Atomic" are you going to start being anal about being extra tidy and aligning all your car vents? Is Dansdata going to get a rainbow colour scheme now? :D

Congrats Dan, and I always thought you were more like James Burke.

At least he's not rubbing his crotch on it like Ashton.
"Well bloody done, man!"

I always thought of you more like Holly from Red Dwarf... :p

So I'm not the only one who thought you're like James May. And here I just thought it was the hair.
P.S. Are my emails reaching you OK? It's been a looong time since I've heard back, and I realize in retrospect that I may have asked a silly question, but I figured I'd at least get a friendly "Sod off with your silly question".

I didn't vote, I knew what the answer would be. Well done!

It's the hair. Definitely the hair.

You are, indeed, the man. Congrats.

Congrats Big Dog!
You are by far the most entertaining and informative tech writer I've read.
Well deserved and well done.

Nice work! I'd offer to be Clarkson but I suspect I'm too tall, and not boorish enough.
That, and I don't write for Atomic...

Strepto, if Dan is James, you're Clarkson, does that make me the Stig of our R/C days? :D That would also make Tidman the hamster. hehehe
