Busy times... new beginnings

As way of introduction, I spent a lot of time on Go Discussions (which is apparently back alive?!). Total post count was 2308 and I stopped visiting in 2008 to work on a thesis, have kids, etc.

Well... I finished my thesis this month (finally)! I also had some kids. (My son was around in 2008, but one daughter came in '09 and the other arrived last week).

I'm not sure that I'll be visiting here much. I'm still wondering if I'll be getting back into Go (probably not nearly to the extent I was involved before my MS degree began). I have revived my KGS account, but my problem has always been committing 30-90 minutes for a game. I think I could get back into tsumego books, anyway.

Yours in Go.

Yeah, not really -- post a sgf diagram to any thread and you'll immediately kill the thread making all the posts in the thread unreadable.

Oh, welcome to the new home of GoDiscussions :)

My thesis is "a modular, visual simulator of underwater sensor networks." I wrote a simulator in C# to animate underwater acoustic networks.

Thanks... I didn't really try out GD. I'd been here on 19x19 before. I'm just finally sort-of-free again!
