Lex has worked in journalism, media, NT server administration, Amiga programming, visual effects, and many other industries that died just after the year 2000. (If anyone knows a bookie, he just moved into knowledge management, and it's likely heading south as well.) He is also a fine purveyor of hoaxes internet and otherwise (UFOs, aliens, chat logs, moon landings ... pretending to be psychic at parties) and a beloved troll.
