[edit] Origin of the Name Ajax Serix

Commonly mistaken as a reference to a soccer team, Ajax Serix is in fact a fictional character. As a child one of the earliest stories Eric wrote was a noirish detective tale. He made up the name Ajax Serix P.I. because he thought it sounded slick and cool. Eric has used the name Ajax Serix in nearly all of his endeavors on the internet. He considers the name more of a reference to his writing than anything else.
