A new picture every day!
Well aren't you a curious one. Move along now

Personality:
I'm a calm, optimistic person, trying to see a silver lining in every cloud. I tend to go along well with most people because of that, and I hope you who is reading this is no exception ^^ I am a thinker, so I tend to follow a good train of thoughts for a few hours. I am very curious, wanting to know as much as I can about whatever I find interesting. I am shy with people I don’t know well, but friends get to see a more extroverted side of me. I am quite honest, maybe more than what I should be. Sometimes I can be a bit rude or otherwise cause negative feelings, but please believe me when I say it is unintentional.

Info on profile picutures:
Past:
A real-life photograph of the Earth as seen from Mars, just before sunrise, taken by the Mars Exploration Rover - A, more commonly know as Spirit in 2004, on it's 63rd martian day, or sol (It's still active today, accumulating more than 1500 sols on martian soil, impressively more than the expected 90 sols). Amazing isn't it? Quoting Carl Sagan (although this particular quote was about a more famous photo): "Look again at that dot. That's here. That's home. That's us. On it everyone you love, everyone you know, everyone you ever heard of, every human being who ever was, lived out their lives. The aggregate of our joy and suffering, thousands of confident religions, ideologies, and economic doctrines, every hunter and forager, every hero and coward, every creator and destroyer of civilization, every king and peasant, every young couple in love, every mother and father, hopeful child, inventor and explorer, every teacher of morals, every corrupt politician, every "superstar", every "supreme leader", every saint and sinner in the history of our species lived there". Heh, that couldn't have been said better ^^
Current:
Another picture of Earth, this time taken from a shuttle in low orbit. As can be seen, the sun has risen not long before the picture was taken, making it's reflection on the ocean look particularly yellow due to intense Rayleigh scattering. A similar version can be found here. In fact, check out the archive while you're there, you won't regret it =)

Thanks to melancholy for offering to make banners for everyone and to windy for making mine. It looks great :3
I promise I'll expand this section afterwards ^_~ -> Lies Horrible lies D=
I saw your link for reciprocated altruism, and thought it was pretty intruiging. There is some controversy going on that a baser form of "altruism" is exhibited by bacteria or more specifically a colony of diverse bacteria, id est, a biofilm. I mean most humans associate "altruism" as a complex and a profound emotion that is projected by multi-cellular, macroorganisms, but some scientists claim its a innate function that is present in prokaryotic organisms as well. If this has some truth to it, it puts more emphasis on how similar all life is to each other.
I apologize for the random comment, but it's nice to see a person that is the same age as me, and likes to ponder about the world. Same with your personality; I share the trait of being extroverted when I get comfortable with people, and is a bit shy towards new people.
