In keeping with protocol, as discovered in the thread by JennaDean: "Introduction." I now introduce myself to everyone. I have read Hatrack for a few weeks now - selected humor threads mostly - and finally decided to register and contribute something (hopefully). Some of my RL friends are already involved in this forum (erosomniac & Juxtapose), giving me further reasons to join.
As for OSC... Any author who can capture my empathic thought patterns within a character like Andrew Wiggin (Ender is, of course, far more omniscient than I), deserves my humble adoration and support.
The Hatrack River Forum seems to be a more civilized and cultured evolution of the online forum. I'm a recent college grad from the U.Washington, hosting at a restaurant while trying to get a career started. It's a pleasure to meet you all.

Well, I'm a Biologist by degree, but I'm interested in both Genetics Research and IT (Information Technology)... separate fields, but interestingly coming together with bio-computing.
[Edit: clarified "IT", just in case]

Oh, that is very cool. I'm a technical writer with a minor in biology, so it's possible we have something of the same career in mind. How is it going?

lem - Technically, no. "Omniscient" does imply one is all-knowing... I guess I meant more that he's closer to omniscience than I (should've wrote it that way the first time...)! Does this mean I have to choose my words more carefully around here? Posts: 37 | Registered: Feb 2006

Hello roomie! I didn't realize that you had signed up shortly after I gave in and posted for erosomniac's birthday. I supposed I could have posted a new 'Hello!' thread too. But I figured I'm too new with this stuff. Especially since OSC's books have been sitting on my desk for the past 2 months...untouched. I will read them. And then I'll possibly understand what you all are talking about. Adieu.

Yes. In November. I was in your house, we played I Never, and we watched Invader Zim. (Well, I feel like we watched Invader Zim, but we might've just talked about watching it.)

I'm also doing the restaurant-host-whilst-getting-career-started thing, sort of. I'm in grad school, so the career is happening in very slow baby steps.
Welcome to Hatrack!

Welcome infrared! Biology and IT eh? Great, we're a little light on wetware coders, you can fill the void.

We try. But just watch Dagonee and Mr. Squicky go a few rounds about... well, anything, and you'll soon see the knives come out. Just kidding, guys! I love to watch you two go at it.
