Hello there,
I'm Ciaran. I'm just out of college and working in Animation.
I'm here out of an interest in linguistics and fascination with pseudoscience/cryptoscience and cryptozoology as well as enjoying internet forums that don't feel like someone's given an infinite amount of monkeys an infinite amount of computers.
I found this through the magical magic of hotlinking..from a blog on learning Icelandic, to a wikipedia entry on Daniel Tammet, who learned Icelandic in one week, to a thread here

I thought perhaps my Irish could be of some use to the linguistics forum.
Anyway, consider me introduced.
