Well, I will give this a go and see what happens. Found Whole Wheat Radio following a link from J-walk. Found J-walks blog searching for Excel Stuff. I am a mid-50's optical metrology consultant to NASA working mostly on Hubble Space Telescope. Married to smartladyofthehouse, friend of zben in real life, a caver, have a tree farm in West Virginia with a 40' x 40' log cabin I built myself from scratch. Used to be a surveyor, construction engineer, enviromental engineer, etc. During commuting time I keep happy in traffic with ham radio, as KB3NCY mostly on the 2 meter band..
If you are bored you can watch me working on measurement (a quicktime video)....

Sorry the cleanroom camera is not working anymore, hopefully the camera will be repaired in the future.

Well, life goes on, we moved from our little cheep rental inside the beltway and are now existing in the new Hippy 2.0 paradigm and sharing a house for a while until we figure out the next step in life.
Change is something we all seem not to like, but is an inevitability. Its gonna happen, so we all might as well get used to the idea that change happens
If you need to know how to measure anything, just ask me how its done...

Life is good, Life is fine. As I take a few moments to reflect on the last year and the hope that we all have for a new year, I would urge caution. We are a long way from being out of the woods yet. I hope that the light ahead is not a on coming train, but I am taking no chances and getting over to the side. I have hope for peace in the middle east, but when one side violates peace treaty after peace treaty and continues to fire rockets I wonder if they have just brought retaliation down upon them selves, and now (like a child) are blaiming the other side for their own actions. Life is uncertain, eat desert first...
