I am James Maxwell Bell. I was born some years ago in New York, and now live in Princeton, New Jersey. I have a good sense of humor (which I like to call my "sixth sense") and good common sense. My writing skills are somewhat unused, my last "great" work having been writing more than 2 years ago. My reading skills... well, that's a different story. I find practical jokes funny (kinda), but respect the feelings of the poor victim.

[edit] Studies

I have studied (or am studying):

  • English Basics (i.e. Grammar, R. & L. comprehension) to the fullest,
  • English Literature to an extent,
  • Ancient History (esp. Ancient Egypt, Greece, and Rome, as well as the Phoenicians, Babylonians, Chinese, Britons, Mayans, etc.),
  • Medieval History (esp. the Crusades),
  • Mathematics (Alg. and Geom. until beginning calculus; have won 2 awards already in state math competitions),
  • Classical Physics (to be continued),
  • Quantum Physics (beginning),
  • Astronomy (not astrology),
  • Geography (quite good),
  • Geology (also quite good),
  • Theology (always looking for people I can discuss this with),
  • Art (sculpture; paintings, a little),
  • German (lived in Germany for a couple of years, "very good" Deutsch, said they),
  • Latin (obligatory in Germany, still taking this up here),
  • Ancient Egyptian Hieroglyphs (self-studied),
  • and of course, Music (which is one of my multiple future careers and so far the most promising).

An award to anybody who can guess my age and my instrument!

[edit] Accent

American, but not strong. I can imitate British, Scottish, Spanish, or Italian accents very well. Am. or Brit. spelling is all the same to me.

Why am I here? Hmmm, beats me.

[edit] My First Edit

Don't even bother. It's lousy. ;p

[edit] My Second Edit

Quite similar to the first.

[edit] Tasks

I have labeled myself as a contributor, "verifier", and spell-checker, although I prefer doing the first two tasks. I am very diplomatic and am a very good peacemaker. Don't try stepping on me, however, because I can recognize that and counter-attack it immediately.
