   You are lucky that I noticed this, I haven't had time to read much of my
mail lately, and I haven't read news for days!

   Well, what sort of impression you will get from this I don't know, but I
shall try anyway. I *hate* trying to fill in forms, I always stuff up the
easy bits and make people think that I am a moron.

> Alter Ego:		The Silver Brumby of the Silicon Plains,
			Taffareyn Aldurienne Kandor
> Birth Date:		(RL) 15 Nov 67,
			(brumby) Spring some years ago,
			(Taffareyn) Late spring a lot of years ago.
> Birthplace:		(RL) Melbourne (Dandenong if you want to be more
			precise, though I doubt any of you know where
			that is!)
			(brumby) Somewhere on the net....
			(Taffareyn) the Duchy of Tarquenda
> Residence:		(RL) Oakleigh, Melbourne (due to change sometime)

(Shall I quit with the multiple personalities? You can ask about them
directly if you want. I'll stick with the RL stuff.)
> Sexual Orientation:	Heterosexual I suppose, actually I'm not interested
			in anyone other than Robyn.
> Marital Status:	Yes, I have one. She's called Robyn.
> Offspring:		Due on New Years Day according to the doctor.
> Siblings:		One younger sister. Very trendy, very religious,
			(tried to persuade me role playing was inherently 
			evil once) and very rich (compared to me anyway)
> Blood type:		Red, that's all I know about it.
> Hair:			Far too much curly blond hair.

			to blue when I'm agitated. (Clear, pale blue means
			run like hell)
> Height:		Just under 6'1"
> Dominant Brain Hemisphere: Neither most of the time, when one fires they
			usually both do and then I'm unstoppable! Very rare
			occurance though.
> Physical Deformities: Nothing I can see in a mirror. :-)
> Music Preferences:	Something with a bit of a beat to it, I usually
			can't understand the lyrics so the words are
			irrelevant to me.
> Favourite Books:	Want a list of the couple of hundred lying around?
			Even an author list would be too long.
> Pet Peeves:		Now *that*'s probably longer than the book list. :-)
> Favourite Movies:	Hmmm, haven't had the money for any for a while.
> Least Favourite Activities: Being in crowds when I'm stressed out. (I'm
			agoraphobic at the best of times.)

			them....), a few things better not mentioned in
			public. :-) (See Sex:)
> Quotes that can be attributed to me: Not likely, I am very quiet off the
			net.
> Hobbies:		Not riding enough :-(, reading too much science 
			fiction and fantasy, trying to become a hacker (the
			sort who pushes computers beyond what they were
			designed to do, not the sort of weed who breaks
			into things)
> Political affiliation: If I ever figure out this politics buisness maybe
			I'll get one. I haven't so far.
> Allergies:		Exams, major assignments. :-)
> Occupation:		Programming/Networking student.
> Favourite Foods:	Chocolate! In almost any form!
> What I regret most:	Not something I'm going to admit in public. (Nor in
			private if you ask me either)
> Favourite TV shows:	Well, I lived for 2 years without a TV, and now I
			find that I can't stand to be near one for more
			than a few hours a week. So I can't develop a
			favorite show.
> Parting words:	I thought of several things, none of them very
			funny, so I shall just tap on the keyboard while
			I try toConnection closed by foreign host.
