About me

GenderMale
OccupationProfessor of Computer Science
LocationDayton, Ohio, United States
IntroductionI'm a bleeding heart liberal teaching graduate computer science at one of the few academic institutions where most of the faculty lean to the right. In my younger years, I worshiped at the altar of math, science, and engineering. Later in life I opened my eyes to the humanities. Now I read everything I can get my hands on (well, except dime store romances) and one of my side projects is writing a young adult suspense/mystery novel. One of my ulterior motives is to encourage more women to pursue careers in computing.
InterestsMany
Favorite moviesI gave up picking "favorites" a long time ago. I like a whole bunch of movies for a whole bunch of reasons.
Favorite musicSee my earlier remark about the concept of "favorites." However, in this case I can tell you that neither rap nor modern country has ever been anywhere close to reaching that status with me.
Favorite booksMy next one.

You're trapped in a well with a goat and a slinky. Describe how you will escape.

Use smartphone to access Anagram Server, discover with THE GOAT AND SLINKY I can make STAGNATED HOLY INK. Doesn't seem likely to improve experience in the well. On through 93750 other phrases. A HANGED STONY KILT sounds promising. Not long enough to climb out. Eyes light up at A HALED TYING KNOTS, but Google "haled" and move on. Long story short, call 911, tell farmer I found his goat.
