Hi to all,

Just wanted to take a moment and say hello to the list and introduce myself
(although I don't think I can be as impressive as the eyeball guy;  he don't
know when you might get to meet him, but he'll keep an eye out for you!).

Let me begin by saying that I'm not really a writer.  Mostly I've written a
couple of theses (fantasy) and a bunch of proposals for funding (fiction).
Mostly I've found that I get invited to better parties if I tell people I'm an
unpublished writer, than if I tell them I'm an unpublished ichthyologist.

By trade I'm a fish guy.  I teach fish farming at a small college in central
New York (no eyeballs, but I do get to squeeze eggs and sperm out of fish and
mix it around in a plastic bowl;  does this count for anything? Fish
conjugation, verb conjugation, all d'same).

My writing is mostly a personal thing, where I try to resolve multitudinous
quandaries concerning life, work, beer, fishing, lunch, beer, gardening, the
Tao, time dilation, fermentation of odd and assorted starchy things (cattail
roots, bananas, parsnips, rice, etc) and the fact that most government
publications (especially IRS tax instructions) would make a hell of a lot
more sense had they been written by Douglas Adams.

Soooo... In my never ending quest for cheap entertainment...I'm looking
forward to lurking on your list...

Bill Snyder
