| Introduction | You'll learn about me as we discuss different issues. I have a wife,Joan, and daughter in college, Laurie. (Note that Green Village Pages, Green Village School, and Green Village.com are not connected or related, just check the site out for yourself - Thanks, Dale the original Green Village Pages dates back to 1966, 1971, 1972 - parts of which were published in 1972, and performed in a stage show again in 1972). |
| Interests | Pollitics, Humanitarian issues. Writing, reading, always learning something new every day. Hobbies and other interests:collect records etc., Video games, Rocks and Minerals, photography, travel. Painitng, drawing. Discovering new cultures, and how different regions here in the US have developed their distinct differences - when our society is being "cookie cutter - ticky tacked everywhere"...I like to find the eccentric and unique, and document it in photos when I can. Space and Earth - how are we going to save our planet. Green, grren it's green they say...act now or we're all going to be extinct. Religion - what do we believe, why do we believe, ...the bane of mankind, and the saving of mankind - how do we reconcile war and peace in the name of religion. Such grat depth of thought by such brilliant scholars, and yet we still blow each other to bits. Heed the teachings of Jesus, be more simlpe, caring nad loving. I am fascinated by how little we know of the spiritual world around us. |
