A late(and debut) entry:

Name: Steven Merlo
Gender: Male
Year of Birth: 1975
Mental Age/Status of Inner Child: About the same as my actual age
Location: Melbourne
E-mail Address: king_stevutz@yahoo.com
LEGO/home page URL(s):
Marital Status: Single
Children: None
Occupation:  Currently working in Road Construction
On Lugnet Since: Now!

# of Sets in LEGO Collection: 200+?
# of Unopened Sets in Collection: None at all.
# of LEGO Pieces: A lot.
# of LEGO Theme Parks Visited: Does my bedroom count?
# of LEGO fests attended: None.

First LEGO Set: Set #674, bought for me while in Switzerland

LEGO Dark Age: Starting high school 1987

First Set after Dark Age: The RES-Q Hovercraft - not sure why.  I bought it on
a whim.

Favorite Theme(s): RES-Q for returning me to lego.

Favorite Set(s): 6647 for sentimental reasons

Favorite Piece(s)/Minifigure(s): any see-through piece.

Set/theme you would like to see: Military themes - Air Force; Army; Navy. I
can't understand why these are yet to be produced. Kids(at least male ones)
love toy soldiers and surely any argument that LEGO teaches construction not
destruction is no longer valid with the abundance of weapons available in Star
Wars and Castle themes.

Current LEGO Project: Earning enough money to buy more LEGO.

Greatest Claim to LEGO Fame: Not throwing away my LEGO when I considered
myself too old for it(what was I thinking?).

Other (Non-LEGO) Interests: Writing, playing, listening to music, Computer
games, Tabletop miniature wargames
