Your personal background.
I am 70 years old. I worked for the Canadian National Telegraphs from 1956 to 1977. I installed , repaired communication equipment, electronic or mechanical during that time.

I then transferred to the Canadian National Railways Signals and Communications department. I was part of the team that was building and testing a prototyp electronic train dispatching system and then maintained it until i retired along with the system in 1993.

I like using computers and working on the internet. I use a G4 MAC, but i also help my wife out with her Windows machine.\\

I have just started a couple of years ago and belong to an Astronomy club in Winnipeg, Manitoba. This is the oldest Astronomy club in Canada. It is part of the RASC (Royal Astronomy Society Canada)

Your opinions about Einstein@Home
I keep my computer on 24 hours a day and 365 days a year. I have been doing that for five years now and my computer works like a charm. It's not the fastest but it all helps.
