His website is http://www.subbot.org/

His real name is Robert Mitchell. He has a BA in Classical Greek as well as a Master's of some sort from U of Chicago. He worked for several years as a Java coder but for reasons I don't fully understand, decided that paying work is somehow evil and so flatly refuses even to apply for a job.

In part that's because he is very shy and so cannot tolerate office politics, and in part - again for reasons I don't understand - he has a passionate hatred for women and so cannot tolerate being in their presence.

He's heavily into jazz and swing music; he likes to call himself "trane" because that was John Coltrane's nickname.
