Arithmetix
hey I'm just some 50-ish guy wandered in off the net... nobody very very special, not especially a genius or anything... but I am somewhat special and I am a little bit smart. I'm reasonably well-educated, and there's something more: I decided a long time ago that I'd rather try and learn to think for myself than watch television.

Formal education: I did a technician's certificate in telephony, and followed up by lots of night school and was going to do electrical engineering but the way things went that didn't happen.

Informal education: I did, for one reason or another, end up with a lot of free time over many years and I used this for learning and teaching, and even some research, in a kind of mathematics I invented for myself and in a narrow little area of wave superposition.

I'm really into religion. Lots of people think I am weird. My friends tend to be very scary... extreme examples of one kind or another.

I'd like to learn to be kind.
