| Occupation | ER RN, former chef |
| Location | Oregon, United States |
| Introduction | disabled ER RN. Prior favorite activities were back-country skiing, kayaking, hiking and swing dancing. Now I mainly focus on my knitting skills, which give me great pleasure and i read a wide variety of authors on many subjects. I used to be more focused on classical literature, but lately have turned to historical fiction and non-fiction on many subjects. Very engaged in aromatherapy and creating a wholesome, natural environment around me. Also involved in health care reform (we aren't there yet) and creating housing for the disabled who don't yet need nursing home level assistance. With creativity we can reduce the lives lost to the nursing home experience. |

| Favorite Movies | out of Africa, Enchanted April, Topsy Turvey, The Sound of Music, Mamma Mia, Amadeus, Immortal Beloved, Forrest Gump, Emma, Shakespeare in Love, Tea with Mussolini |
| Favorite Music | Classical and opera. My favorite operas are Mozart, though I will go for Bel Canto, such as Lakme. I do also like Celtic and a lot of new age, since it's very soothing. Of course, some of the music of my youth still appeals, but it wears me out easily. R&B is my favorite and the Chess records are tops |
| Favorite Books | The River Why, Ahab's Wife, West with the Night, This House of Sky, English Creek, Pride and Prejudice, Guns, Germs and Steel, Collapse, The Tipping Point, Theodore Rex, John Adams |
What is it that keeps society at each others throats with even small discord? Why can't government see that jobs that don't have social relevance are no jobs at all?
