1. Not counting immediate family members and significant others, who is your favorite person in the world?

I don't typically like putting people on pedestals, but Richard Dawkins comes close. Carl Sagan would be the one most likely to make me reconsider hero worship if he were still with us.


2. What do you like most about your job?

Not having a job makes this a difficult question. I am doing occaisional indie computer work for people and I do quite like helping people.

3. What do you like least about it?

See above, the not having is probably the key.

4. When you really, really need to relax, what do you do?

Kill pixels. Watch anime. Read a book. Think. Depending on what mode my mind is in.

5. What's your favorite season?

Difficult to say. I don't like the extremes of winter and summer. But migranes and allergies give me problems during the changing seasons. I guess I am partial to fall.

6. How do you like to spend your time off?

Aside from the above mentioned relaxing activities. We go to Stratford for the Shakespeare festival. Travelling and exploring are the keys really.

7. How many pets do you have?

1.5 hamsters, 8-9 fish, 2 puffers (they don't think they are fish), and one snail.

8. What's your favorite game?

Baldurs Gate II. Really its more of a genre. I favor RPGs and Tactical games.

9. What color is your vehicle?

Midnight blue.

10. Where is the most interesting place you've ever been?

4 I keep track of as far as notability. Each of them have a great deal of meaning to me.

Japan: I love studying culture and society. And Japan is about as interesting as you can get in those fields.

The top of Mt Sneffels. I used to do some mountain climbing. Looking down over things from the top of a mountain gives one a different perspective. I will never forget it.

The banks of the river Avon in Stratford Ontario. Perhaps it was a moment. But the setting, the cherry blossoms falling, the swans, the couples rowing downstream, it all came together to be a perfect moment.

Baltimore Harbor. Sitting on the dock and looking out at the breadth of history. Wooden ships along side modern vessels. The city in the background. Choked me up for a while.
