An e-mailer informs me that Muse singer Matthew Bellamy is the son of George Bellamy, who played guitar in the 1960s band the Tornados, a group whose smash-hit “Telstar” was a favorite song of — I’m not making this up, either! — Margaret Thatcher.

UPDATE: Jeez o’Pete! According to this, Matt Bellamy thinks 9/11 was an inside job.
