About Me
That doesn’t tell you much, as there are many of us around. There are authors, scientists, businessmen, footballers, and Duran Duran members sharing my name. I might tell you I hail from Leeds (that’s in England, my US chums) but that would still leave the possibility that I am the lead singer of The Sisters Of Mercy, which is really only slightly less wrong than the footballer guess.
I have a Master of Physics degree from the University of Leeds (no, not the Met, thankyou for nothing) am currently doing a PhD at the University of Manchester in 2D and 3D image analysis. I am a scientist, a skeptic, a cynic and an atheist, and I have increasingly long hair because I find the less I have it cut, the more compliments I get and the cheaper it is.
I’m this guy. Hats make me look gay and I don’t know why.

Hi there,
I was in the middle of an internet forum discussion with somebody when Dave Hitt interjected and offered to decide the veracity of a study by reading the abstract. He did say that the whole study would be better, but still, on an abstract! Arrogant bastard. (I’ve posted a link to it his offer below)

Hi Andrew. I found your site via the b3ta link. The coin redesign article is absolutely fantastic - clever and intelligent. I’ve got some brilliant advice for you, from one PhD to (almost) another. Do you have a phone number I can call you on?
