Hello JavaGaming.Org!  My name is urchin, long time viewer/lurker/troller (don't know which is correct) but first time posting.  

(The crowd, in unison) "Hi urchin"

Just wanted to introduce myself and say hello.  I've been stopping by daily for about 3 weeks now.  There's some really talented and smart/helpful people using this board and I'm looking forward to learning with/from you folks.

A quick background, I've been doing java since 95.  Been studying the java3d Getting Started w/ the Java 3D API .pdfs for only about 3 weeks now.  I've not written anything except a little world w/ textured walls that you can run around in (via a custom behavior).  

Anyway, hello and more later!
