Outside computing I am an Amateur Radio operator. When it comes to speaking languages other than English, I may be best considered a lapsed French speaker as my fluency is not what it once was. I am an avid Science Fiction reader who enjoys works published by Baen. I also advocate the revival in use of UUCP & Fido``Net. Occasionally one could consider me a "writer" though my current job tries very hard to make me hide having any sort of life outside the job.

I served previously as the Head Writer at [[http://erielookingproductions.info|Erie Looking Productions]] and presented ''[[https://archive.org/search.php?query=collection%3A%22opensource_audio%22%20AND%20%28subject%3A%22burning%20circle%22%20AND%20subject%3A%22podcast%22%29|The Burning Circle]]'', the podcast of [[OhioTeam|Ubuntu Ohio]]. The podcast had over one hundred episodes during its run though not all are archived. Outside the Ubuntu realm I presented for six years starting in December 2007 ''[[https://archive.org/search.php?query=collection%3A%22opensource_audio%22%20AND%20%28subject%3A%22lisnews%22%20AND%20subject%3A%22podcast%22%29|LISTen: An LISNews.org Podcast]]'' which dealt with more general issues in the realm of library and information science. '''Both podcasts were rather abruptly terminated as of December 16, 2013.'''

I continue to be located at "The Undisclosed Location". I continue to prepare for a return to something that might be called "home" but that seems elusive. My presence on IRC has effectively disappeared so reaching me via electronic mail is best.

Materiel donations via [[http://amzn.com/w/35SWMCWPMXDJE|this configured Amazon wishlist]] are graciously accepted in this time of cutbacks and continuing equipment failures. Anything received is gratefully appreciated with a cheerful heart in uncertain economic times.

I have been [[https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Membership|an Ubuntu Member]] since March 15, 2012.
