I used to hang around with the MTCP groupies, but haven't spoken to any of
them for some time. You might get more information from the
slightly-more-official <http://www.mtcp.co.uk> or the mailing list
<http://www.mtcp.co.uk/online/list/join.html>.

The Mark Thomas usage came first. A couple of years ago, he wore t-shirts
with weird slogans on for each show. A couple of them were 'Meeja Hor' and
'Mor Hor'. The first was obviously ripe for appropriation and lengthening (a
kind of "Embrace and Extend").

And, especially, a version that _doesn't_ insist on playing horrible midi
files at you on every page :(
