Hi, a brief intro to the 'Cylon Turncoat'
az 30-several Anglo-Australian, Born in Australia and grew up in the UK
3rd generation Science fiction fan. Grew up on the classics of Azimov, Wyndham, Foyles Jnr and Snr and of course A C Clarke. However just at home with a trashy low budget space opera flick as I am with the 'high brow' stuff.
Fan of the Original Battlestar series when it first came out here (UK) in the cinemas, when it was on the TV, it was a family show with 3 generations of us on (or sometimes behind) the sofa
Enjoying the new series as well, see them as simply diferent versions (view points) of the same core story line.
Sci Fi favourites include Dr WHo, Blakes 7, Babylon 5, Godzilla movies and Macross. We did not get Robotech in the UK< I discovered Macross through Science Fictions conventions which led me to becomming for a while at least, something of an otaku (Japanese Anime fan). Babylon 5 was another one that was family viewing (though with much sadness, for only 2 generations).
I'm involved with computers, have trained as a mechanic, have a BA Degree (Major history/Minor Psychology) and I have an interest in film so have studied film critism a small amount. I hope to be able to contribute in some way to the team even if it is small.
