About

What's the deal with your nickname? How did you get it? If your nickname is self-explanatory, then tell everyone when you first started using the internet, and what was the first thing that made you say "wow, this isn't just a place for freaks after all?" Was it a website? Was it an email from a long-lost friend? Go on, spill it.

My nickname comes from Gulliver's Travels, specifically Gulliver's visit to the Academy at Lagado.

Check out my blog Laputan Logic (yes, that's another Gulliver reference).
