I guess I'm hoping to be added.

Heh. I just asked to add your journal. I've added you, though there's not a whole lot to see around here yet...

*sigh* From an e-mail I just received, apparently I need to clarify that the above bio is of Tesla, not me.

For the record, I don't really think he was a lunatic, I think he was autistic.

he was certainly obsessive. He invariably dressed formally for supper in his hotel's dining room. He required large piles of napkins while dining, using one and throwing it aside.

But, Damn! He was brilliant. And he rarely gets credit for his accomplishments.

I'm personally in favor of dressing for dinner. ;) But he was an odd duck.

In the scientific community, I think he has a lot of recognition. Outside of it is another story...

Hey, if you like Tesla and Heinlein, I hope you've read Spider Robinson's Lady Slings The Booze. He helps save the world, and he's odd as they come....

Just saw your posts on waternest, where I'm lurking. I'd like to be added, I think. ;-)

I'll have to pick that one up. I confess, I hadn't read anything by Spider Robinson until he appeared on AFH this year after he was picked to ghost write a new Heinlein.

Welcome on in! There isn't much to read here yet (aside from my silly ex angst,) but I'm working on it...

thanks! your lj name and icon rock!

Spider's old stuff is absolutely fantastic. His later stuff reminds me a little too much of late Tom Robbins - sort of "dirty old hippie man," fwiw. But the Lady Sally stuff is like Heinlein on nitrous! ;-)

Hey,I resemble that remark!

Hello.I'm a hippie writer researcher from Canada.
How can I not friend a woman with the name Allucquere?

Hi, I was bored, and site hopping through some of your pages, and noticed an email address for Carnegie Mellon. Just thought it would have been interesting to meet up with someone from the area when I was at my parents over leave that's also on LJ.

allucquere August 17 2006, 23:09:16 UTC

Alas, the website isn't mine, just one I find interesting. However, I'm not too far from PA. Give me a heads up on your next leave and maybe I can swing by.

Just curious then, where abouts you might be? As my younger sister goes to school in Ohio at Case, and I used to live in the sprawling growth of Detroit's suburbia, so I'm somewhat familiar with the area, even though I haven't been there that much lately.
