I cant remember the last time I even went for a single day without reading a book, I always have at least one on the go.
How many pages, on average, can you read in one day?
Hmm, on average I would say 100 - rough estimate though.
Often asked but good question. How many books do you read at the same time?
I normally just stick to one at a time, but occasionally impatience drives me to start a second or even a third, I would never go beyond that though or else my brain would explode.
What is your favourite genre of music?
Nowadays the number has come down to two. I prefer to pick one from fiction and another from non-fiction or literary criticism. Also two books each in a different language.
Did you like to learn (memorize) the poems in your school text books?
Some, but I appreciate it all the more now that I don't HAVE to do it.
How have you been lately?
Well, as there haven't been too many damsels in need of rescuing recently, I've been somewhat bored of late.
What is your favourite shade of chocolate?
I like milk chocolate.
Do you think that it is inconsiderate of the damsels to not be in need of rescuing?
Well it would be nice if just once or twice I and the knight I represent could be called into action, it's been too long since my last good rescue.
Which period of history would you most like to visit?
Aaah, tough one! :( There are so many. I suppose I'd like to see how those Egyptians built the pyramids of giza. Anywhere really. All of them, if I could in my lifetime! History is fascinating!
Are you guilty of procrastination?
Nope, Thank God!
Do you smoke?
Never have and never will!
Do you drink beverages of the alcoholic variety?
No.
Would you burn a book if you don't like it? If yes, which one?
There is something about the act of burning a book which I find utterly repellent, regardless of how bad it might be, I couldn't even bring myself to burn Mein Kampf. It should be preserved as a warning. So, the answer has to be no.
Would you commit a murder if you were going to recieve 1 million pounds for doing so?
No. Life is precious. Even a human life.
Would you kill an insect for 5 pounds?
No, I doin't think so.
What time is it in Norway now?

Have you ever visited a psychic (for a reading or insight)?
Yes. Was at a psychic fair. I was disappointed. I can read tarot better. :P
Are you a religious person?
No, not at all.
If you were forced to switch religions, or to join a religion if you are not affiliated with one, would you do it? (by forced I mean that your life depended on it, but not certainly-- ie you would not necessarily be killed if you refused, but your life would be put at risk)
No, I would not. My belief in God is based on what I see beyond this life.
Would you criticize someone for a belief that you did not understand?
No. But, I would ask for clarification. I like to learn about different beliefs.
Do you believe that in order to be an ethical, moral person, one cannot be raised agnostic or atheist?
I've not met enough agnostics/atheists to give a judgement or form an opinion. But I can say that I've seen many self-declared religious persons who are not always ethical/moral. It didn't mean that all religious people are so.
Do you think you can tolerate hypocrites?
Nope! I just can't stand such people.
Are you a short-tempered person?
Occasionally.
Do you consider yourself to be stubborn?
Yes, on matters of principle.
Would you compromise a strongly felt principle for personal gain?
Nope
what's your ambition?
To be content.

Being unaware of The Phantom Tollbooth until college.

Always.
Same question.

What major invention other than nuclear would you like to be ''taken back''?
Well, I wouldn't want nuclear to be taken back, for one thing. I wouldn't want any scientific invention to be taken back. However, I would like to see the approach to scientific inventions changed. Less weapons, more sustainable energy, more medicine, etc. Splitting atoms is the beginning of finding sustainable energy, and therefore, nuclear energy is essential towards scientific progress. Unfortunately, there was a bomb.
Knowing that there is an ever-changing social environment that we're all adapting to, the lines between tradition and modern times become blurred. An increase in individualism, in people becoming more open about everything. So, do you think that this is a good direction for us?
Well u already answered ur question. as in crease in indviidulaism means every one has his own direction. and if u are asking about the mankind direction so i think its going towards bad direction coz mankind has forgotten the fact that they have to face God after tasting the flavor of death.
