Center, Univ. of Texas at Austin Lines: 12 It's not really Fred but considering the accent Drax had it might be the closest thing you could make out. In several books on Dr. Who the Time Lords are given names (possibly for reference by the matrix?) which are mathematical symbols. The Dr's is the third derivative summation x squared and when I saw the show the dialog went something like this Drax: Fete, Fete Sigma! It is you. I'm sure this would be alot clearer if the terminal would draw the symbols but then what would happed to man's search for knowledge? :wq
