Pleased to meet you. It does look like we share a lot of interests, and that you're having a passionate yet rational adventure through life as well. You appear to be on the opposite side of the country from me, but if you find yourself out here (or I find myself out there) we should definitely meet up.

For now, I think you might enjoy looking at:
