one way function

[pm215]

It's really quite easy to go from LJ username to realname (assuming you know the person); the opposite direction is rather harder.

In other news, The Shop On The Bridge (in Reading, not on a bridge and at the wrong end of the Oxford Road) is dead good for minor electronics stuff, like a new fuse and light bulb for my ailing microwave. Sadly it still blows the fuse as soon as it tries to actually turn on the magnetron, so either buggered door interlocks or something nasty in the EHT section.
