HW: a few questions.

[Alex S. Garcia]

I might not be the best person to answer these questions, but from what I've
read over the weekend, I would guess the following (well OK, not all are
guesses, some have become obvious :-)

>1. Who is Dale Churchett?

Apparently, the "administrative contact" for the hawkwind.com domain.

>2. Who is Star Rats? (is 1 the answer to 2 and vice versa?)

I used to wonder too. I now think it originally was Dale and that Andy took
over the Star Rats e-mail when he took over the website?

>3. What are either's (1 or 2 above) involvement with HW ?

Well, Andy was a fan maintaining a fan site. Not sure if Dale had further
contacts. Then of course the site in question was actually owned by Doug
Smith. But I don't think there was actually direct involvement with the band?

>4. Who is PikNik or do I mean Rix? (didn't PikNik do some photography for
HW a decade ago?)

Don't know PikNik. But if you mean Rik Rx, that seems to be the webmaster to
the official HW website.

>5. Who writes under the name of XXX?

Hawkwind, ie. the bandmembers as a whole. In other terms, the official voice
of the band :-)

>6. Where does Doug Smith fit into the scheme of things nowadays?

No idea, aside from the fact that he owns hawkwind.com. And EBS.

>7. Which site is which? Welcome To The Future, HW.COM, HW.org.uk, Mission
Control etc.

Wecome to the future = hawkwind.com (not official)
Mission Control = hawkwind.org.uk (official)

>8. Who is Captain Black?

*blank stare*

>9. Who owns EBS?

Doug Smith, I guess.

Hmm. Did I forget anything?
