My name is Dan Carlson. (Talk) The screen name "MinutiaeMan" is a rather long story, but a boring one. The short version is this: my name comes from my personal website (see below). I am one of the two co-founders of Memory Alpha, along with Harry Doddema.
What to talk about? I'm currently an undergraduate student at the University of Delaware, with a major in History and a minor in Philosophy. I expect to graduate in June 2004, and then attend graduate school for a Master's degree in Education. Either that, or I'll maybe go into web design. I don't know.
My major interests:
- Sci-fi, particularly Star Trek (obviously), Farscape, Babylon 5; I'm also now getting into Stargate SG-1.
- Apple Macintosh computers, web design, and some computer graphics design
- History, international relations, and philosophy.
