Since you asked so nicely (and I hear that I get presents) allow me to introduce myself. I read more fantasy than hard sf (not that hgttg qualifies as hard sf) (won't Jordan ever finish that damn series!?!?). Listen to folk/singer-songwriter type music. Married, two more or less grown kids, sing at church and in a community chorus, programmer (when I can get the work), former comic collector (what am I going to do with 11,000 comics now that I've sold the ones that were worth anything), damn yankee living in Atlanta for 40+ years now, hmmm.... I guess that's enough.

(p.s. am I expected to send thank you notes?)

(p.p.s. don't hold your breath waiting for that to happen)

Awfully decent of you ti ontroduce yourself, JoKer. Some folks come in, make some random post, and we never hear from them again. which leaves us feeling rather awkward. Anywho, glad to have you aboard! And even though Joe beat me to it, here's a different Joker:

I'll take 'em. Always wanted to double my collection.

And welcome.

I gave up on Jordan somewhere around the sixth book. Martin, Erikson and Bujold have proven
more reliable reading for me.

Have the Joker's Reckoning:

Hi Joker, welcome to the mighty DAC. I am 44-year-old suburban housewife, Virginia girl living in the Northest for 20+ years. I like birds, the wild kind, so here is one for you:
