Why hello!
« on: January 19, 2012, 06:51:18 AM »
New guy here, just thought I'd go ahead and introduce myself:
My name's Lyle, and I discovered my hidden love for wolves over the past few years :3

I'm a car fanatic first, and an engineering/science fanatic second. I shall live and breathe physics, electronics, and anything mechanical for the rest of my life (although, let it be noted, I'm still an undergrad).



Wolves became a passion for me about 2 years ago, largely from a love of nature and the night sky. I learned everything I could about them, and I spent a ridiculous amount of my time reading and writing about them (more the science stuff though).
My dream is to one day travel the world and to see the night sky in different continents-without light pollution. In addition, I hope to see some wolves along the way-although that’s unlikely due to their nature.



Anyway, I’m really looking forward to getting to know everyone! :D

Hello Legolyle!


I'm Otebon Albrecht and I can sympathize with your love for science. I'm a Chemist and Physicist personally, but it's nice to know another engineering and Lupine-loving kind-of-guy!


It's great to have you on the Forum!


Welcome!

Thanks, and that it is! I'll never forget it, after having seen it several times as such. Living near the city really makes you appreciate its indescribable nature.

Thanks for the welcome! :D

I absolutely loved them as a child, and this name has been with me ever since my first email account. Goes well if I do say so myself. Legos, Lyle, engineer = building things :P

I can totally relate, for 11th grade science fair I made a coilgun that used an inductive charging system (worst possible way to go about making one). Whilst testing it out the DAY before it was due, it blew up, literally. Little boom and it totally wrecked the most expensive part of the circuit-which was a special order fast switching transistor. I had fun explaining that to my physics teacher when I brought in a non-working science fair project the next day :/


feel free to PM me if you ever want to chit chat!

cuz, we are getting a bit off topic here haha, maybe we should start an 'inventions' thread :P
