I teach chemistry.

I suppose if anything you'd have to go with the story teller from my site:

If you look around my site you'll reallize that he's also a chemistry professor:

> What is the name of your fantasy world/country?
I can't really call it "my" world, but Tolkien's Middle Earth.

> Favorite Castle set?
I'd probably go with the Blacksmith Shop, but I really like Wolfpack and
Forestmen, so maybe Wolfpack Renegades or Forestmen's Crossing.
> Favorite Personal MOC?
I'd probably go with one of these two scenes from my Tolkien story:
http://www.brickshelf.com/cgi-bin/gallery.cgi?i=281243
http://www.brickshelf.com/cgi-bin/gallery.cgi?i=281235
I was especially happy with the lighting effects on those.
> Favorite Other MOC?
Impossible to say. In Castle I might go with Jon Furman, for both his great
Tolkien creations and also his more recent town, but what about Takeshi Itou,
or all of the other great things posted here and elsewhere.
> What is a project you'd like to do but just don't have the bricks?
Actually, I'd like to get into some other areas, like sculpture or trains, but
can't really invest the bricks, time, and apartment space for these.
Within Castle, I suppose a walled town.
> What would you like TLG to do with the castle line?
Well, let me start with what I don't like - castle wall pieces. I would much
rather see more things built of real bricks, like the Blacksmith Shop. Also
I'd like to see more civilian sets. Jon Furman's village would be a great
series of sets in a MOC line.
I'd also like to see other cultures--Vikings, Romans, Greeks, etc. Perhaps
these aren't strictly "Castle", but then the Ninja theme was a sub-theme of
Castle. Perhaps some of these could be subthemes in the Adventurer's line,
like we've gotten Egypt, India, Inca/Maya/Aztec, and now a Chinese palace in
that line.
Also, fewer themes. I'm obviously a big Tolkien guy, but I'd never want to see
a Lord of the Rings theme. The Harry Potter theme is fun, but I'd rather see
TLC create their own castles, allowing for greater imagination in the builders
to make their own story lines.
