| Your personal background. | |
| Hi, my name's John Slattery. I'm a 65 year old English teacher living with my wife, and our 2 dogs and 1 cat in Santa Fe, NM. I'm a Vietnam vet, USMC 1963-1967, Chu Lai, Vietnam, 1965-66. I have an MA in English Ed., and I've spent most of my teaching career abroad: 3/4 of a year in Shiraz, Iran (my timing was bad - I arrived in '78 just about 1/2 a year before the "Islamic Revolution." I didn't leave in time, so I got to see it happen and finally was able to leave 2 months later.) I lived & worked in Saudi Arabia for 19 years (not continuously - with breaks), 4 years in Jeddah, 15 in Riyadh, teaching English for the Institute of Public Administration. In between my stints there, I worked in Jakarta, Indonesia (2 years) and taught all levels (elementary - college) in the States, in FL, CO, CA, KS, MO & NM. I taught Head Start for 8 months and taught ESL and Critical Reading at Santa Fe Community College. Now I teach GED at the NM State Penitentiary. My hobbies: fitness, camping, hiking, reading, writing, surfing the Net. | |
| Your opinions about Einstein@Home | |
| I'm so very new at this; I'm not even sure what's going on. But it seemed, from the little I could understand, to be a worthwhile project. My suggestions: well, could somebody fill me in on the basics and let me know how I can help more? | |
