About this user

"I went to the woods because I wished to live deliberately, to front only the essential facts of life, and see if I could not learn what it had to teach, and not, when I came to die, discover I had not lived. I did not wish to live what was not life, living is so dear; nor did I wish to practice resignation, unless it was quite necessary. I wanted to live deep and suck out all the marrow of life, to live so sturdy and Spartan-like as to put a rout to all that was not life, to cut a broad swath and shave close, to drive life into a corner, and reduce it to its lowest terms, and, if it proved mean, why then to get the whole and genuine meanness of it, and publish its meanness to the world; or if it were sublime, to know it by experience, and be able to give a true account of it in my next excursion." --Henry David Thoreau

Interests

Science, philosophy, world religions, history, and other nerd things like vexillology, computers, theoretical physics, logic, epistemology, futurology, abiogenesis, the ecumenopolis/dyson sphere/niven ring concepts, and anything that gives my mind a challenge. I also enjoy the study of people- psychology, anthropology, sociology, political science, rhetoric, philology, linguistics, and evolutionary biology/psychology. Due to the direction my life is currently taking, I have recently taken an interest in oncology.
