No-one cares about Theon

Ages ago, John Theon had his five minutes of fame in the usual tedious manner; as blogged by me and others with too much time on their hands. Since then his wiki-life looks like:

I know, its not very exciting, but I like to record such things; though it appears that I missed his other two deaths. The total absence of any news about him since his deletion supports his non-notability.

[Update: it looks like he is due yet another death]

Nowadays I seem to rely on wikipedia for my news stories. Not necessarily for the truth, but that something has occurred.
The usual denialists (e.g. The Register) are excited because some guy they never heard of before has joined Inhofe's merry band, writing:

I had to cheat.

Thought you meant Greyjoy. He's notable.

Before I cheat, I'm going to guess it's the old Baths building that now holds a bunch of mediaeval stuff including the Dame a la Licorne tapestries. Cluny.
