Revision as of 14:24, 3 February 2012

As you might have guessed, I am interested in Austrian Economics and economic history. I am also interested in other things and have read quite a few books on many a topic (long live generality!). I work hard, when I'm not goofing off and I like animals. Most of them.

Random notes:
