Is There an ILE Introduce Yourself Thread?

After that I read a lot of DFW's other work and enjoyed most of it.

(Similarly, I enjoyed Mason & Dixon until they actually started, you know, surveying the Mason-Dixon line. Then it suddenly got bland for me. But it is a wonderful book to have on your shelf, especially if it's the hardcover: It's a gorgeous object!)

I also forgot in the TV column any historical documentary with Adam Hart-Davis. He's so cuddly!

Also, I'm another person who doesn't like fill-in-the-blanks surveys. My name is Caitlin, although that's not what it says on my birth certificate or my passport. I'm 25, I'm English but I've lived in Edinburgh since I was 18. My taste in anything - music, books, films, art, whatever - tends to be pretty eclectic, so whenever anyone asks: "Who's you favourite [blah]", I go a bit blank. I'm a computer geek - well, a geek generally - and I first found ILX via Sinister.

If you want to know anything else about me, go here.

It was fun to meet David, actually, although I was pretty drunk/drugged/nervous that night.
