I have noticed you on the boards for the first time this last week. You must be a scientist of some sort yourself, I would guess, and your posts are straightforward, reasonable, and readable (even for me!
). Are you a scientist, and what's your interest in the evolution-creation debate?
Thanks muchly for the additional detail.
My real name is in my profile here at EvC; and I have contributed under my real name for a long time through talk.origins. I have recently set up a new email address, which I now use also in talk.origins as well, and my hope is that "Sylas" will become my known pseudonym for contributing in these subjects. My identity is not a secret, so I have no major concerns about being "outed". However JonF is quite right that I am trying to establish a kind of distinct on-line identity. I've discussed this in talk.origins as well.
One outstanding issue is my involvement with the talkorigins website and feedback column. After consultation with others involved in that website, I will probably maintain contributions there under my real name, not as Sylas.
Pedagogy is the science of teaching. I have a professional interest since I am a lecturer in computing here in Australia. My formal qualifications are from a science faculty, but in fact they are nearly all maths and computing and automata theory. I don't consider myself a scientist. Most of my science knowledge is picked up by private reading.
Cheers -- Sylas
