 6# hi, i'm la-ninpre
 7
 8i am also known as aaoth or lev brekalov.

10i was thinking a lot about the reason i have so many names, but i could'n find
11a clear answer. maybe i'll try to make myself up somehow, but now it's messy.

13anyway, since long time i tried to follow do-it-yourself principle, and this
14website is an example of this. web-development (if you can call it like that)

31user, but then i realized that many things are more comfortable in
32unix userland.
33additionally, it's important for me to understand *what* exactly i'm doing, and
34the last thing is nearly impossible in closed oses like windows or mac.
