Groundhog Day
I just kind of wandered in here and read stuff. I'm a computer programmer fluttering through life in the SF Bay Area. I rejoice in the beauty of human knowledge and understanding, and our ability to turn that knowledge around and apply it creatively to control our world. I spend my life learning what I can about what we do, how we do it, and where we might be going. The next few decades promise to be an exciting journey of discovery, and I hope that they will provide me with the ability to live for decades more exploring human knowledge. I also do what I can to contribute my bits to the human edifice, but I'm mostly in it for the gawking.
