    Dave is wrong, (no surprise there)... in the James Bond movies Q
    was called Q for his job title, Quartermaster. It wasn't his
    name and it had nothing to do with Quatermass. In the Ian
    Fleming books there was a "Q branch", which was the Dept that
    produced the various spy gadgets that the agents needed.

    And Q was the head of the 'Q Branch' .. i.e. 'The
    Quartermasters Branch'

    Something like that... :-)

    There is actually a series of official James Bond books based around
    Miss Moneypenny.

    The Moneypenny Diaries
    <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Moneypenny_Diaries>

    There is also a fiction book about the woman that is supposedly the
    inspiration for Miss Moneypenny.

    Top Poster there, perhaps) ..... but I've got to ask ... "Does any

    Dave was doing his usual troll cross-posting to other newsgroups
    to bring even more weirdos from those other groups here... it's
    what he does. (Which is why this group is the way it is and
    potential newbies stay away after lurking around for a bit.) In
    this case though he didn't type alt.fan.james-bond properly...
    so we had a lucky escape.

    But nobody from there would have told him anything other than
    the title Q in the Bond movies was for Quartermaster anyway.
    (That's even if that newsgroup has anybody there!)
