Gender Male

Location Washington, United States
Introduction Have brain, will explore. Extremely intolerant of non-thinkers (or members of ANY political party - which is the same thing).
Interests Humans, intelligence, photography, logic, software design and engineering, astronomy, astrophysics, chemistry, quantum physics, world history, law, intelligent discussion. Stamping out rampaging stupidity, encouraging scientific, intellectual discourse, encouraging free thought, and promoting the demise and end of political parties in the US.
Favorite Movies The Man Who Would Be King, Ghandi, Lawrence of Arabia, Memento. The kind of movie that removes your brain from your head for a couple of hours, plays with it...then returns it to you; not necessarily in the same condition.....
Favorite Music Anything by Rush...Neal Peart is a poet! (And a whole boatload of other stuff too!)
Favorite Books Way, way too many to list. The China series by Peter Hessler, all of Isaac Asimov's work, current affairs books by diplomats, CIA employees, other folks who have actually "been thers and know". Any good 'alternative future' or 'alternative future' books. Anything that takes your brain out and challenges it to a duel! Absolutely nothing by any TV commentator or politician.

Which is easier to make a model airplane out of and why: a banana peel or a wet sock?

Both: Flexibility -- know the things you can change and those you can not and attack the latter. Expandability - always be open to new ideas and opportunities...or else you are not living!
