The Spiel
My name is Dan. I live on the Isle of Wight. Which is okay for a place stuck mostly in the 1950s. Some day I'm going to build a self-sustaining eco-system in an underground bio-dome in Antartica so when zombies take over the earth and all that shit, I'll be okay.

I am currently studying music at college and I want to become a professional musician/composer/musicologist. I would like to study a doctorate someday, although that would cost lots of shiny golds. Seriously, how cool would it be to introduce youself as a doctor? Exactly. It's something that nobody can resist. I plan on studying Music and History at Chichester University once I have completed my current course. I play guitar to a variable degree of success. I've been writing lots of really obscure progressive metal. Listening to too much in one go makes you go insane though.

I have Asperger's Syndrome. So basically I'm a recluse hermit. Seriously, I only do interesting shit around my friends and people I know. If I don't know you then basically I turn into the terminator.

I dislike people who lie all the time. Trying to get people to like you for what you're not is well shameful. Ugh. I also dislike it when people automatically make false assumptions and baseless suppositions about other people. This is really annoying, becuase I have to waste an hour trying to point out I'm not a creationist, and that I used to be a Nihilist and stuff like that.

I used to be a Nihilist, but I believe in God now. I am writing a book at the moment to try and get people to ease up and debate like rational mature adults.
