Hello ats excited to be here

Hello again.
I am excited to be on the site. I have never created an account, although I have been lurking for some time now (maybe a year or so), and am inspired to better appreciate some of the brilliant posts and comments I have read on the site.
Well a little about me. I was born and raised in Texas and currently living there. I am almost 30, a veteran of the Navy (08-14), working as a mechanic and have a few small (like micro) businesses going that if follow most of my past ventures will fail (only needs to work once right?) I am an avid reader (no specifics I like fiction and non fiction of to many genres to name), I love to fish (mostly freshwater), my family means everything, I bounce back forth between atheist and agnostic, hunt every chance I get (whatever is in season that I like to eat), I am a libertarian (I loathe the two party system), I am anti religion (the institutions not the people), anti big government, pharma and open borders, pro to everthing you can do that does not hurt anyone else (unless it is what they want, I do not judge) or robs my children of their future.
I am very excited to be on here and hope to hear from you soon.

Welcome

For you have opened a door that can never be shut. You will read and see things that will haunt you for the rest of your life. This world that you have entered is a dark and scary place full of trolls and the like.

I hope you paid the troll toll!

Hello and welcome!

Much love!

Welcome Aryabahata! I was wondering exactly how to pronounce your user name if you don't mind. Thanks and hope you've had a good Thanksgiving!

Thank you everyone for the warm welcome. Its going to be very interesting.
Trucker1 here is a link to the pronunciation

Aryabhata was an Indian mathematician-astronomer who lived around 500 A.D. He was truly a brilliant person and I recommend anyone to at least google his name. Its not an easy read but Aryabhatiya ,with a bunch of referencing other sources to understand it (for me at any rate), is something I would recommend to anyone with a serious interest in mathematics or astronomy.
Happy Thanksgiving everyone
