Well more or less, that I graduated from the University of Toronto with a Bachelor of Arts degree specializing in the study of history.

I would have to say applying to and then going to the University of Toronto was the biggest risk and best decision that I have ever made in my life.

I received a degree from one of the best universities in Canada and one that did not expel me unlike some of the other schools I could have gone to.

Going there exposed me to ways of thinking and knowledge I continue to use and put me in touch with the science fiction community that continues to form the bulk of my none work life.

Steve Davidson, also know as Rimworlder on many SF forums, was fed up with Sci Fi Channels catering only to kids who wanted to watch new stuff and wrestling and paranormal fans and scoured the internet and found legal feeds of all his favourite classic SF shows and movies.
