I've only ever been mistaken for myself. People draw a lot of comparisons to all of the round-faced, mustached men of entertainment that make me cringe and sick to my stomach about how the world really sees me and they're right.

I am someone who values knowledge, actual knowledge. I also value stories and fiction a whole lot, and that's where the fake knowledge comes in.

We have all been empowered by the web: everyone with a keyboard can now effectively broadcast to a national audience. In a sense, it puts each of us on the same footing as the major media conglomerates, except for AOL, who now apparently own all our thoughts and teeth.

Everything we make in life, eventually, is sold for a dollar or a penny or given away.

Specificity is the soul of narrative.

I'm not sure if that answers the question and I have absolutely no problem with any major world religion on Earth.

The fact is I'm very self-similar.
