You really expect me to put private information on a public homepage? Well ...

• My favourite comic: Dilbert.
• My favorite journal: Journal of Craptology.
• I am a member of bahnmedien.at, which publishes books on the history of the Austrian railway network.
• I enjoy riding my Fazer 8 and WR250R (the latter mostly "onroad", unfortunately).
• I collect (and repair) Almex ticket machines.
• I collect manuals of German and Austrian train operators.
