…And the worst moment (if any)? Ah, here's a place to put it..... Sight-transposing Til Eulenspiegelreally sucked. :)

5. What music do you listen to in the car or subway?
The subway is so loud I can't hear subtleties, and subtleties are the only reason to listen. And I don't have a car... So, i read. D.H. Lawrence at the moment.

An astro-physicist, I'm pretty sure.

Reading, discussing politics, bike-riding, and now, because of my boyfriend's dissertation, learning about Jane Austen.
