Hi

This is quite a slow way of communicating.

But a durable one

How are you a similar student? Looking for that illusive job?

Achieve little but expect a lot

Are you a pro of the h2g2 system?

Pro? Depends on the question

Well, you seem to have quite a lot of articles. Have those been submitted to the peers or are they just from your journal?

Two are edited entries, the rest is either too personal or not really "appropriate" for the Edited Guide.

What is appropriate and what is the edited guide? Is that what is accessible under life, the universe and everything?

The best thing you can do is reading some Edited Guide entries. I'm sure you will see what I call appropriate. But of course you can submit whatever you want.
You can start reading the entries on the front page.
And yes, that's what is in the "life, the universe and everything"-sections.

Which are your entries? How did you become an Ace? How long have you been a researcher on h2g2? Is my incessant questioning annoying?

Not annoying at all
You can find my entries on my space. The edited ones are: "Carnival in Germany" and "Hysterectomy".
How to become an ACE? Just apply for it and wait
And I'm here since May 2000

I find this whole talking to people over the internet thing a bit disturbing. Like having no picture of who someone is. Are you male/female, English, Southern/Northern. Where do you study, for example?

I'm sure many people likt the idea of anonymity
What I can tell about myself is: female, southern German and not matriculated at all at the moment.

Medical student?

No!

Ich kann ein bischen Deutsche sprechen. Ich habe fur zwei Jahre gelernt aber that was quite a while ago and I really cannot remember than much.

Well, i have to go but it has been nice speaking to you.
