Citizen Journalist
Reporting from: Melbourne, Australia
Registered: Jan 10, 2008
Who is Brad Lucas?
This particular version is a thirty year old web developer from Melbourne, Australia. There are other versions out there, but this one's the better of them - or so I've been told.

Why is he here?
Well, when his parents met in...oh, you mean on DJ? Well, he loves to write and read the news, and DJ were offering money to become a Citizen Journalist - who could refuse?

Does he often speak in the third person?
No, not at all. He just couldn't think of anything to put on his bio, so he decided to do a Q&A type intro.
