I have a PH.D in the internets
therefore I am the most well-read on the forums in the matter of internets
you can call me Dr. Nesterus
I think different pe0ple might be well read in different areas ^.^ I SH0ULD just v0te f0r myself th0...:D
...0wait
h0w did i even qualify 0.0
I vote Bree, seeing as half the time Conrad's posts (as excellent as they undoubtedly are) take me a couple reads through half the time to get the gist of what he is saying about the Holy Roman Empire or whatever historical topic is up for debate. Bree on the other hand submits legible posts that are actually humorous and rather creatively written.
Good show.
Basing that all of my opinions would be based on only the forums, and I hardly feel it's just to base this to their true intellect/knowledge. But basing on this meager information I casted my vote :p
Why am I on this list? This seems suspicious.
You were suggested by the panel.Quote:

Win. I v0ted f0r myself. N0t because I think I am the m0st intellectual, but because I can ^.^
Why am I not on this list? I'll have you know I have read almost every Mr Man book.
I have no idea why I'm included in this list, but to whatever "panel" that placed me in it, I'm flattered. :)
I vote other, and choose Boleslav, because he's a teacher, and they HAVE to read the works they give to their students to study...Not to mention books that they read on their own to keep ther own minds sharp...
I read the most adult magazines ... do I qualify?
Nope, I was there for the meeting but I did not provide any names. I did remove one name from the list however to make room for the open option.Quote:

It was someone who would never have received any votes. And from the comments no one has said they wanted to vote for him.Quote:

If I was the panel I would have put my name in there at least thrice. Panel is private just like the votes.Quote:

That, I think, is an interesting question to pose.
No rota?... Even though he isnt here anymore...
Define "well-read", because I see two possibilities here.
I think he means "well-educated."
Nope. Well-read.
I've read like 10 textbooks this year.
I ish well-read?
I have read (and not skimmed or scanned--actually READ) Thucydides, cover to cover, in my spare time, and the reading was completely un-related to school...Does that count?
i bet you used spark notes
I didn't define well-read. That was the panel.
However, if you look at Option 10...
I chose Other/Not listed for the interest of neutrality, since I wasn't entirely sure what you meant by well-read.
Well-read could mean well-versed in literature, it could mean well-educated (whether in historical or general academical terms), it could also mean very up-to-date with contemporary history. And so on.
Nope. I read it like any other book.Quote:

Moreover, it was a pretty easy read. It was very detailed, and very much enjoyable...Even more so than Herodotus's work...Which I read the same way, albeit a bit slower.

Everyone on the list strikes me as well read. So I went with other/not listed because I feel there are plenty of forum ers that read well too.
I did English Lit at school. Read plenty of classics and at least 4 Shakespeare plays. I still read a lot now but it's mainly more modern novels :p.
It would be a good idea you 17 rebels to say who you are voting for.
Personally, I believe that I'm fairly well-read for my age, but I voted for Conrad anyway.
No-one could possibly hope to match his use of language unless maybe Stephen Hawking joined the forum and started harping on about the intellectual properties of anti-hydrogen (which I'm assuming is completely non-flammable as it's the OPPOSITE of hydrogen).
General thesis about antimatter:
Every particle has an antiparticle which has exactly the opposite properties as the particle. For example, an electron has a negative charge, as you all know. The antiparticle to the electron is the positron, which has a positive charge. The antiparticle to a proton is a negatron. The antiparticle of hydrogen is, you guessed it, anti-hydrogen!
It's quite simple if you condense it down into a very simplified, probably wrong version.
No its not.Quote:
