About me

Rant

I am possibly a polymath and am interested in most things. Among my more irritating obsessions are British and German history, heraldry, vexillology, genealogy of European royalty and nobility (especially dynasties and royal houses!), 19th century British literature (go Jane Austen!), Narnia (not the movies), Renaissance music, nanotechnology, environmental sciences, linguistics (especially phonology), the EU, Calvinism, you get the picture!
