Hello everyone.
I'm starting this thread just through curiosity.
I want to know the type of people that are on this site.
I've had the pleasure of interacting with some of you, and have a general idea of many member opinions through the reading of various threads, but I
want to know what brought you to ATS...
I'll start with me:
Since I can remember, I have always had a BIG imagination. I'm creative and artistic, and being born in England, my entire family believed in ghosts.
I suppose this is what drew me into the paranormal.
In Middle and High School, when I came to the States, I found book sin the library for cryptozoology, UFOs, and ghost and psychic anomalies. Since I
found that section in the library, thats the only places I checked out books from.
I had always watched TV shows when they came on about UFOs and the Loch Ness monster, and I suppose my Imagination just really wanted some of this
stuff to be real.
In college I never really delved into any of it, but did continue to read my comic books and such, hoping that college wouldnt suck all my imagination
away from me. Last semester (my last semester) a friend of mine from high school recommended this site, he said he looked through it when he was
bored.
As soon as I signed on i immediately went to the Alien and UFO forums and hung out there behind the scenes for a few months before creating my
account.
Immediatly i was hooked into discussions and have learned more than my fair share since then.
I was excited to be able to pick up all the stuff I had left behind in high school.
SO, thats my story, and I don't expect any of you to write that much about yourselves, I just want to try and see if most of the people on here are
the same type of people. If we were attracted to this site from our past researches, or if you once stumbled upon a thread and had your eyes
"opened" so to speak.
anyway, just thought this might be a good way to get to know some people and see what brought everyone to the same place.
