Professor McGuffinProfessor McGuffin first made academic headlines with his revolutionary archaelogical theories about the origins of the Mayans, then shattered the world of physical chemistry with his discovery of the inertial phlogistonic engine. In his spare time he is a keen amateur violinist, a generous philanthropist, and — though not as young as he once was — occasional boxer. |
