1. Do you live in the present, dwell on the past or look to the future? Ooh, I don't know. Probably the present, but a bit schizophrenically. What I am now is not outweighed by what I want to be in the future, nor what I was in the past, but what I used to and still want to be is still a factor.

2. How many roads must a man walk down before you can call him a man? 42. I think I qualify.

3. How many beans make five? I am a maths pedant.

4. Which is your favourite Winnie the Pooh character, and which are you most like? Probably Pooh. Piglet is too whiny, Eeyore is way too whiny, Rabbit nice but aggravating, Owl ditto. CR is obviously good, but more of a deus ex machina than a character :) But Pooh is actually nice, and wise if not clever. In poohsoc I was first River (whose only two lines are "gurgle" and "hurry"); and Singing Pooh (not because I can sing, but because James refuses); and CR (more of a power-play than a character). I'm probably actually like Eeyore (depressed and arrogant) and Rabbit (intellegent, flighty, and makes lists of things) and Pooh (nice, and cuddly).

5. Which is better, extract of malt or clotted cream? Now how about in sandwiches? I don't do cream.

1) Why did you choose to do Maths at university? Was it a passion? I always liked maths, it seemed obvious and inevitable. I didn't really think about what I would enjoy most, or what would be most useful. But I think it was right, I enjoyed it more than I would anything else, and it left my options for a job open, successfully.
2) What writer that I haven't read should I read, and why? Eek. Which of http://semichrome.net/~jack/social/books.txt haven't you read? And I'll recommend one of them.
3) What is your favourite story that you've written, and why? Ooh. Probably Maurice Saldini. It's most me.
4) What place that you haven't been to would you most like to go to, and why? The future! We're getting there fast.
5) Is it better to die young and famous or old and rich? Agh. Middle-aged and famous?
