Quote: Today a young man on acid realised all matter is merely energy reduced to a slow vibration, that we are all one conciousness experienceing itself subjectively. There is no such thing as death, life is but a dream, and we are the imagination of ourselves -
About Yourself: Love aquariums and the science behind them. Own and operate a aquarium installations and maintenance service which lets me get experience with a wide variety of fish and aquatic animals. I also volunteer part time at the local aquarium, so i can care for all sorts of fish including hand-feeding a 3 meter tawny nurse shark!
