On cpbeller's birthday, I'll be turning the same age as Yojinbo. (It's a WORD PROBLEM! AUGH!!!

)

I teach and tutor college math and English, as well as dabbling in other subjects as I'm needed. I'm currently finishing up my BFA in computer animation, but will be continuing on to get an MS in applied mathematics, focusing on computer graphics. My intentions are to combine my skills and develop some educational software (what's out there right now could stand some improvement, believe me) that focuses on visual teaching and treating the students/Users with respect.

Oh, and I'm also an Editing Parrot.

Current reading: rereading Roger Zelazny's Amber series (currently on book 8) for the 4,342,435th time.

Current viewing: His and Her Circumstances, Spider Baby, and TRON.

Current gaming: Dominions II, TRON II, Dominions II, Republic: The Revolution, and Dominions II.

I'm 16 (well, in Dec. 14th), have had DomI for a year or so, and though I have liked it I have not been playing it much with other people. And it seems that, compared to others, I have not played a lot of it even in single-player, atleast by standards of this group.

About myself, I am from Finland, studying in gymnasium. Normally I read alot but have not found interesting books lately. Just registered to this forum, but have read most postings posted.

Well, I'm French

, still 38 (not for long...), with 3 kids : 6, 2, and the Last only 3 months

.

I started my playing career in the Golden Age of Wargames in the late 70s and early 80s, when I was student. I played much AD&D at that time also.
Then in the mid 80s I got an Apple IIC, then a PC and since then I've played a host of war games, strat games and RPG.
I'm a TBS guy and don't like action/RTS stuff.

Since 97 I write reviews and articles for French war/strat games mag VaeVictis, Cyberstrat�ge and PC4War.
Professionnally I work in Bank Information Systems for a major French bank.
That's it kiddies !
