David Geelan

Description: A mono-lingual but biplatformal (i.e., I prefer PCs but can use a Mac if coerced with scented bootlaces) Australian. Working on a PhD in science education, but spend too much time surfing the net to make much progress. Spent two years lecturing in Papua New Guinea - wasn't eaten.

Deliriously happily married to Suzie, two podlings of the female persuasion. Usually massively over-verbose and polysyllabically obfuscatory... trying to restrain the tendency. Major headbanger [1], and reader of 3-4 novels of assorted provenance [2] each and every week for the past 20 years.

[1] Anthrax, Megadeth, Metallica, Iron Maiden
[2] PTerry (of course), Iaiaian M Banks, Jack Womack, William Gibson, Umberto Eco, Stephen Donaldson, Clive Barker, Stephen King....

Don't mention:Science as a measure of anything. Economics (especially of the so-called 'rationalist' brand). Celine Dion.
