This is hughmanwho on the nextcoin forums.. different username here.

That's a shame... I apologize it's taken a day or two to respond to this, I didn't realize I was being informed of it on the same day as the deadline. RickyJames, I appreciate the thought but I did not get a message from you either on here or nextcoin.org, only one from Salsacz sent yesterday.

Too much stuff going on in my personal life this weekend, but you don't want to consider this so be it.  However, I would very much like to be involved with helping Nxt grow, I have been a strong supporter of Nxt for a couple months now and I really think that it has the best chance out their to be the foundation for the future of money. I have thrown myself into helping out Nxt during all my free time these last couple months.

I have experience with marketing and am a computer engineer.  I have some ideas regarding getting the Advanced Consensus required to secure the network.  I also have an idea regarding how I feel leased forging should work.

I have also spent a lot of time writing a paper with Secondleo's help that has determined that Bitcoin costs 800 times as much to secure the network and uses 3000 times as much electricity to get it done.

I would like to apply to be on the Nxt technical committee.

Thank you,
Matt
