I was born in Tennessee, moved to Denver at age 10, graduated from Princeton in math in 1974, and have since lived at times in Washington, DC, New York City, and currently just outside Eugene, Oregon. I've worked mainly as a systems programmer, initially on IBM mainframes, and more recently on Windows and Unix systems. Most of this work has been as a self-employed contractor. I've maintained my interest in math, but perhaps with a switch of focus from algebra to foundations. So my contributions would be mainly in math and computers and philosophy, but I've also read a lot about ancient history and politics and economics, so I may have some things to contribute there, too. I'm also an English language stylist, so I like to fiddle with opaque text to make it clearer, even if I'm not an expert on the subject matter.
