This is my first post to my google blog. I hope my musings will be of interest to family, friends, and perhaps even strangers. I plan to write mostly about social, economic, and political issues that might concievably be of interest to the wider world.

At the moment, I am a professional computer programmer. Five years ago, I was a professional research physicist. I have a strong background in mathematics and economics. My background in history, literature, and philosophy is less strong, but I do very much enjoy those subjects. Basically, I'm a hard-numbers guy who was blessed to have an excellent liberal-arts education in his youth. Many thanks to my teachers!
