| Introduction | I was born in the same year as the US Air Force and the ACM; a year after Harry Truman integrated the US Armed forces. I have now lived for over 28% of the life of the United States. During that time I have lived in a converted chicken coop, a 20x20 cabin external water and toilet, a 20 room house. I went to 12 schools. I have meet many fascinating and wondrous people in my journey and have been urged to document some of this journey. |
| Interests | Computer science, Science, Reading, Science Fiction/Fantasy, Spirituality, Human capability, The human spirit, Our journey. |
| Favorite movies | As a child my parents got an Encyclopedia set that came with a set of books that had Mother Goose, Grimm Fairy Tales, and other stories of our childhood. My favorite movies are about a journey. They contain characters that are foolish, brave, heroes (often all three), and any other character attribute. They tell the story of one or more journeys. To me the trip is more interesting than the destination. |
| Favorite music | Varies depending on my mood. Blues, country, heavy metal, swing, big band, classical,... I get bored listening to the same stuff all the time. Often silence |
| Favorite books | Technical manuals, Science fiction/Fantasy, History, Spirituality. |
What's the most amount of sand you've ever had in your swimming trunks?
One grain. Anything more is just a distraction.
