WHICH PLAYER IN THE GAME DO YOU ADMIRE THE MOST AND WHY?
I'd have to go with ljc. ljc is an awesome player, always with great records in any zone he plays in. He's also about the nicest 'good' player I've met. You'll never see him mining or neg killing but every now and then he'll grab a vulch or two.. hehehehehe When I was a newbie to the Expert zone he took my 'under his wing' when everyone else loved to flame me. The funny thing about ljc is he gets rather steamed when he dies more then about 2 times in a 30min period... :-)

AS A WINNER IN THE GAME WHAT ADVICE WOULD YOU GIVE TO NEW PLAYERS?
Play hard and practice to get good. Once you do get good, have the same outlook on the game as when you were a newbie. Don't get a hot head like so many people do.

HAS THE INTERNET CHANGED YOUR LIFE IN ANY MEANINGFUL WAY?
Gee.. I could type days on this one. It has changed my life in many ways, some good some bad. I am basing my studies in school on computers, and if it had not been for the net.. I would now have gained the incredible interest in computers I have now. However.. the net is also managing to ruin my studies as well as taking its toll on my marriage. It's so hard to limit yourself to the computer when you have homework to do or a wife to be with when you could just be plugging away at people on SubSpace... :-) Overall though I'm very glad I discovered the internet as well as computers.

DOES TECHNOLOGY INCREASE OR DECREASE MORALITY?
Hmm.. very difficult question. I would probably have to say technology seemingly has a negative affect on morality in general. The reason I came up with this conclusion is that if you look at the world 100 years ago it seems that the world in general was a friendlier more pleasant place to live. I'm in no way saying I would rather live 100 years ago then now, that is by no means the case. I'm just stating that 100 years ago the world seems like it was a more moral place to live. And with that conclusion, you can say technology obviously has increased in 100 years so it might be safe to say technology decreases morality.

WHO WAS THE MOST IMPORTANT MAN OF THE 20TH CENTURY?
Albert Einstein is my hands down choose. I mean hell.. this guy was almost as smart as me. :-P

DO YOU HAVE ANY RELIGIOUS BELIEFS? IF SO, WHY/WHY NOT?
I could write for days on this too, but I'll sum it up real quick. I believe that God exists of course. He made the world as well as us.. I don't believe we evolved. I am nondenominational meaning I don't affiliate myself with Catholics, Muslims, Jews or any other denomination. I believe some people are going to heaven and some to hell. That's my short version... :-)

DO YOU HAVE A FAVOURITE PHILOSOPHER?
The only ones I've really read were in Honors English at college. I read a little Socrates, Plato and others of the more well known ones. I haven't read enough of each individual's work to make a solid choose though.

IF YOU WERE STRANDED WITH 100 OTHER PEOPLE ON AN ISLAND WHAT SKILLS DO YOU HAVE THAT WOULD HELP THE COMMUNITY?
I would be glad to test out the food so nobody got poisoned by it. I would also be more then willing to make sure the hammocks and sleeping quarters were comfortable so the others don't get hurt backs and stuff... :-)

WHAT IS THE NEXT BIG TECHNOLOGICAL REVOLUTION THAT YOU THINK WILL OCCUR?
The evolution of true Virtual Reality.

IF YOU HAD THE CHANCE TO SAY SOMETHING TO A HUNDRED THOUSAND PEOPLE FROM ALL OVER THE WORLD WHAT WOULD YOU SAY?
I would be eternally greatful if you'd send me a dollar or two. :-)
