About myself:
I'm a grad student in electrical engineering, and hoping to get into the computer vision field, so I can make cameras that follow your everymove for the government so we can bring about 1984(just 30 years too late) Mwahahahahahaha. (*ahem*) Born in Ohio, I grew up in pennsylvania, moved to indiana during highschool, and am now in maryland.
