I think I'm starting to agree with
Dirk Gently on the fundamental interconnectedness of everything. I was watching
Sanctuary, and it made me look up
Nikola Tesla, because I know very little about him. He lived for a while in Colorado Springs, did you know? See also
The Prestige about that. Anyhow, he used to feed pigeons, a reference to which I think was made by Terry Pratchett in his character
Leonard of Quirm. There was a biography of Tesla, called
Prodigal Genius, the Life of Nikola Tesla, written by John J. O'Neill.
I wonder what the J. stands for.
(ETA: Also, the episode that made me research Tesla finishes in Oxford, which is where I am. *g* ETA2: Actually, that was Rome, wasn't it. But still, they talk about Oxford a lot...)

kirsty841 has pondered what the J stands for, and
been inspired...

John J. O'Neill? Two l's too! Heh. The Prestige is a great film, I need to watch that again!
In my head, Jack's "J." stands for James. I don't know why. I got Jonathan James O'Neill in my head and it stuck. Lol.
John Joseph...that works. :)
Awww, poor Jack doesn't like his first or middle name? Hehe. There's fic in here somewhere... *g*
What could it be? Joshua? Jeremy? Jeremiah! Lol. Jonas? heh. Jefferson! lol.
I was inspired!
