I don't know if you recall but as we were passing each other in the corridor, I stopped suddenly and exclaimed "Derek Powazek!". But I stopped so suddenly that I stamped on the foot of some poor girl who was walking behind me. It's very difficult to introduce yourself to one person whilst trying to proffer apologies to another. I'm getting embarrassed again just thinking about it. What a dork!
