Bane: Blargh

Hi, I'm Dan, though some of you might recognize me better by my IRC name, Bane.

I am a third year CS major at the time of writing (fall 2010) and am interested in AI, with a particular focus on language comprehension, and music.

I feel like I should put more here but don't know what to say. For this reason you can consider this to be a placeholder.
