My first thoughts we
"Who the **** is Will Self ?",

A writer. Has had several books published. Regularly writes pieces for
various publications and also does stuff for the radio. Is usenet really
such a hotbed of philistinism? Apparently so.

Anyone who hasn't heard of Will Self is rather fortunate, I reckon. I
first heard of him in 1997 when he snorted heroin on John Major's plane
during the election campaign and then lied to his employer (The
Observer) about it. I don't usually find his pieces worth reading, and
the Crossrail one was no exception.
