- interested in collaborative mathematics & esp in computational complexity theory, and attacking hard open problems eg P vs NP esp by "nonprofessionals/nonacademics" or outsiders/contrarians. - bought Nielsen's book on Reinventing Discovery. - think the deolalikar proof effort in cyberspace is a really great case of the TCS community taking seriously and vetting a proof by an outsider even before it was formally published. - hope that it can happen again some day, maybe becoming a regular or even frequent occurrence. - use stack exchange network extensively/regularly but feel its a little too hostile to outsiders and too constricting at times.
