While browsing the forums have you ever caught something in of the corner of your eye only for it to disappear when you turn to face it? Have you've ever stepped away from your keyboard only to discover upon your return that someone has taken a bite out of the cheesecake you had left nearby? Or perhaps when in the chat room you've noticed a figure quickly bounce in and out like a man performing a technological bungee jump?

 

If any of the above sounds familiar then it very well could have been me that you had witnessed. I've been listening to FDR on and off for a number of years now and I've done my fair share of lurking on the boards and in the chat. I decided recently that it was about time I came to the forums, introduced myself and got to know my fellow listeners.

 

I'm originally from Scotland but live near London after moving down for work. I live with my fiancee and our two bengal kittens Arya and Daenerys.

 

I think I was unknowingly bitten by the rationality bug when I was younger and found that I had unconsciously deprogrammed myself of religious beliefs by my early teens. It wasn't until my early twenties that a random conversation with my brother raised questions about other commonly held beliefs which I jealously defended. His question lead me down the path towards Austrian economics before branching out into other concepts and ideas such as the non aggression principle and libertarianism. Each new topic has been an exciting new world to explore and my adventures and acquired knowledge in each have brought me closer to understanding the frequently irrational society we live in. This was why I was thrilled discover FDR as it has allowed me to continue my quest for truth and reason through the lens of philosophy.

 

I very much look forward to taking part in the community discussions and if I'm lucky, getting to know some of you.

 

All the best,

Ross
