I grew up mostly in Springfield, Ohio, which Newsweek profiled in 1983 as America's most average city.

In college I majored in Philosophy and wrote my thesis on backward causation (whether an effect can temporally precede a cause).

My grandfather's name is Roy Ray Still, and he grew up as a pig farmer in Iowa but later became an Oboist.

I used to work in internet security but now work at Hunch. I also blog at cdixon.org
