Bio:

My name is Richard. I see you've come across my little journal. If you care to read it, it consists primarily of informal essays about my favourite subjects, and screeds about my personal bugbears.

I am a man of multifarious interests and tastes, mostly in the arts and sciences. Politics holds my interest as well, although I really haven't time for much of the rubbish that passes for 'intelligent discourse' these days.

Although this profile makes me sound ever so stiff and formal, I really am far chattier and more congenial than I seem, so if you wish to add me, by all means, do so. I enjoy having discussions with people of like minds, and I also enjoy a good debate with those with whom I may disagree. Do tell me where you found me, though! I'd love to hear it.

My layout is by LJ-goat_song.

I am a member of The Fen Group
