Gender	Male
Industry	Government
Location	Perth, Western Australia, Australia
Introduction	Sixty something on the outside, twenty something on the inside, curious about everything but quite pissed off with politicians and bureaucrats who really believe they know what they're doing and talking about but NEVER seem to LISTEN to the rest of us or to use common sense. I am also really annoyed by writers and artists who seem to be refusing to acknowledge the immense changes being wrought by the application of scientific method.
Interests	compassion, democracy, ethics, scientific method, brains, minds, consciousness, emotions, behaviour, carbon sequestration by growing seaweed, cooking and heating with stored solar thermal energy
Favorite music	Midival Pundits, L Shankar, Karsh Kale, Moby, Sarah Nixey, Barbara Morgenstern, Philip Glass, Vivaldi
Favorite books	All those by Terry Pratchett, ditto for Jasper Fforde, The Wind in the Willows [original version] for reading aloud
