| Your personal background. | |
| I'm 53 years of age. I'm retired and live with my Dog Charlie in Holton KS. I'm a Father of two and a Grandfather of four with one on the way. I served in the Marine Corps during the Viet Nam era and consider my self to be an inactive marine as there are no former Marines in existence. I am, though, a former Police Officer who after four years realized I didn't have the temperament to continue. After that I drove truck 48 states and Canada until I was Injure while delivering a load when the Forklift Driver caused 450 pounds to drop on my head. After numerous surgeries, I went back to College where I majored in Accounting and Business Management. I retired as a Senior Services Analyst with a nationwide Waste Management Co. I consider myself to be an old school Computer Geek from the late '70's, and '80's when MS-Dos ruled the world and you could do just about anything if you knew how to program. My very first PC (LOL) back in '79, was a Timex Sinclare 1000. Now I spend my time with the Grand Kids, fishing or playing on my computers while watching some space type sifi's, or the occasional episode of Lost In Space. | |
| Your opinions about Einstein@Home | |
| I run Einstein@home because it gives me a sense of contributing to something bigger than myself. I've been exposed to numerous scientific ideas from such show as Startrek, SG1/Atlantis, School of course, and so I'm interested in these types of projects. I also run SETI@home for the same reasons plus, as a Born Again Christian, I believe it is biblical to think there are others, created by God, out there. I run Milkyway@home also. | |
