About me

Gender Male
Occupation Retired scientist, applied mathematician and computer jock
Location Hamden, Connecticut, United States
Introduction I am a sort of bonsai specialist. I am only interested in deciduous temperate climate trees and some broadleaved evergreens (do Boxwoods count?) that are understory dappled shade lovers. I am strongly attracted to "naturalistic" styling that seems to have the UK as its center. I have no feeling for conifers at all. Don't hurt me, I can't help it. To me they all look either like plants I can find in the woods here in CT, not miniature trees at all, or as some sort of abstract, post modern sculpture. But, it is just like a Solid State Physicist not being interested in High Energy Physics. Truth in Blogging.
Interests Bonsai, Northern Wu Taiji Quan, Hawaiian Slack Key and lap steel guitar playing, Recumbent tadpole trike riding (I average about 15-17 mph on the flat), hiking (especially mountain trekking)
