No! I'm a 36 year old bloke working for the family electronics company as
tech. and cust. support.

Well I must confess I was attempting semi-abstract humour (you were
talkingabout all the OT in the thread, so I thought I'd randomly go all
OT... ahem), or at least something like that - the word 'muon' just popped
into my mind so I uhhm, ran with it - sorta, stream of conciousness type of
thing, heheheh... sorry!

Oh, I used to be a real ponderer, a real searcher - I had theories 'out the
yin yang' as they say. Now I am more content to let life and the Universe
show me how it all works, what it's all about, by just *being* in, amongst
and a part of it. I used to think too much and know too little, then I found
the thinking was not helping me know more, rather it was just confusing
things...

I used to love reading quantum physics stuff (only that which was written
with the layman in mind - wouldn't have understood any more than some of
that.), metaphysics, eastern religions/mysticism and such - helped make a
lot of sense out of that which *is* in life and the Universe, and yet is not
apparent to us for the most part. My favourite book actually combined
physics, metaphysics and eastern religion(s) together and was *fascinating*
to me - it was The Dancing Wu Li Masters by Gary Zukov (sp?) - if you ever
get a chance, you should read that - it's a priceless book!
