In case you're interested....

I was a nerd at an early age and made a telegraph set out of wire, nails, tin cans and a battery, that I took to 5th grade to show my classmates. Later I made a one tube radio that I entered in the country fair. In high school I got my ham license and had a station in our basement along with my photo darkroom and chemistry lab.

My career was at TRW (now Northrop) in Redondo Beach where I got my first computer, an Apple II. I started using one of the first Macs, a Mac 512. Later TRW got me a Mac SE. I bought 5 MB external hard drive for it and used it for a long time. Around 1990 I got a Mac IIci that I used until I retired. What I know about Macs I learned by reading, experimenting and asking lots of questions. I joined SBAMUG when it was at Pacific School, a few blocks from my house.

In my other life I'm a musician (piano and accordion) and a dancer (Scottish, Scandinavian and International). I've had a dance/music web site since 1996.

My wife teaches jewelry making. She uses Adobe Illustrator and Photoshop for her designs and to document her work and Freeway Pro for her web site
