About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Share as much knowledge as possible.

ABOUT ME

A thinking, people-friendly person. My interests are very diverse, hence I am not even sure it is a good idea to list them here.

If I tell you I'm a teacher - you'll think I am a teacher. If I tell you I'm a programmer, you'll think I write software. If I say I write poems - will that make me a poet?

The truth is that I am interested in everything the universe has to offer. You can go to my site - railean.net and read a few stories, they will help you build a better picture of who I am.

p.s. I think I have a very sharp sense of humour; but am I qualified to say that?

PHILOSOPHY

Wow, you expect me to answer this question in 5 lines of text? Haha!

But if you insist, I think this is a starting point:

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I think the most amazing thing I've ever done (and keep doing) is teaching at a university. Here's a sample :-)
