Kovid's Zodiac sign is LIBRa.
Calibre means degree or grade of excellence and CALIBRE is a high calibre product ;-)
Its a short word with a nice zing to it.
I had recently watched a west wing episode where Bartlet used a gun metaphor in commenting on Richies book.
And i nagged Kovid till he agreed to the name ;-)
However it came about, the program is awesome. And welcome to MobileRead!
