Hey guys. My name is Michael and I'm a business student living in Little Rock, Arkansas. I've recently become fascinated by the work of SI and I'm interested in participating any way I can. I've long considered myself a rationalist after I abandoned religion in my teens. However lately I realized I need to interact with other rationalists in order to further my development. I'm considering trying to attract more LessWrong members from where I live. If anybody has any advice concerning that I'd be happy to hear it.

1.) Well I based this on observing that I learn a hell of a lot more from interacting with people smarter than me than I do reading or studying.
2.) None of us are perfectly rational. Other people often can spot fallacies that one of us could miss.
