I live in Franklin, Indiana, but originally from Columbus, Ohio. I am 61 years old, divorced, have four children...and six grandchildren, of which three live with me. I retired from the military service in the summer of 1995 and now officially retired. I originally got into seti@home back in 2001 but stopped unexpectedly. Now, I am back. My hobbies include: writing poetry {I have had some of my work published in anthologies throughout the world}; sci fi, a trekkie...but not overly religious about it; I have interests in astronomy, dinosaurs, evolution, physics {anything to do with space}; star gazing...my favorite constellation is "Orion"; I have always been fascinated with the universe, even as a child. I wanted to be an astronaut, to fly to the moon; I even wanted to be superman to get there quicker. I like to shoot pool, walk in the park and other things my mind and heart agree upon. I have an associate degree in science, lacking a few hours from my bachelor.
