Well, obviously JAF is an acronym, but it's a nice acronym. It's easy to say, it's short and it drops easily into conversations. In my case it's short for John A Fotheringham. So short in fact, that people actually call me Jaf.
But elsewhere in the world what, who and where are the JAFs?
Note, this page was updated in Feb '2000, at which time all links were valid. In the process I had to discard just under 50% of the links that used to be on this page, and some of the links are less obviously JAF-related than when I first found them. Don't let anyone tell you JAF's don't move!

F, which is understandable, as I've always been rather
fond of it myself. So..
