Born in the last year in the middle of the former GDR, I grew up in the dryest town of Germany with the best salt and the best soil.
Sounds special, doesn't it? ^^

Languages: german, english, bit japanese, lot of forgotten russki, tiny bit of latin

Thought on Foldit: Foldit is like Go! If you also think that Foldit uses the same pattern recognition abilities as Go, PM me. There are also many similarities in strategic and other aspects of game.
If you want to compare, please have a look at this http://foldit.wikia.com/index.php?title=Pletsch%27s_Suggested_Method&diff=3936&oldid=3935
Here Steven Pletsch describes his "Observations" on foldit and hell, it sounds a lot like Go, if you ask me! (realm of sidechains = influence; mojo+"add mass" = overplay etc.)

If you don't know what Go is, let me introduce you to this very-easy-to-learn, hard-to-master, highly addictive, thousands of years old game. Or just have a look at the wikipedia ;) http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Go_(game)

My Go ranks:
animexx.de + online-go.com (turn based): about 15 kyu (30kyu ranking)
KGS (real-time): about 10kyu (20kyu ranking)
