Wind pushes cattails
two pairs of eyes smile and blush
brook does the talking |

The lone bullfrog calls
chorus from across the pond

Cicada buzzes

| Hi! To me nothing is more satisfying than solving a difficult problem. it doesn't matter to me if it has already been solved, so I like to work through problems in math olympiad collections.

| It is indeed good to find others that are into games like that, particularly on a forum that seems to be almost entirely console gamers (thus, for me, making nearly all topics uninteresting). Same!

Mentally I rank my favourite games daily. So glad to see there are other dwarf fortress and minecraft people here! For me: Dwarf ... |

| it does feel great to go back to old interests. I was interested in snakes as a kid, even planned to be a herpetologist, but then shifted to astronomy, orchids, well, you know the pattern.

I've been told so offhand by an autism specialist I know and the online quizzes and so seem to indicate I am. I'll tell you a bit about myself, in hopes of finding like-minded peopl... |
