After 23 years living in central New Jersey,
I re-located back to Illinois in February 2006,
specifically to Champaign, home of the
University of Illinois.
Some of my interests ...
-
Bicycling -- I've enjoyed some wonderful inn-to-inn bicycling trips with
Bike
Vermont. They choose great inns, with lots of good food, and provide
guides and a van to carry baggage from inn to inn. It's a wonderful way
to get out and see the area.
-
Alumni activities -- I have set up a website for the
New York chapter
of the Illinois alumni association.
As you may know, the web browser Mosaic was invented
at the University of Illinois.
As a student, I worked on The Daily
Illini, a great student newspaper.
-
Scrabble -- I have joined the local Scrabble club in Champaign.
More information.
-
Volunteer usher -- at the
Krannert Center
for the Performing Arts on campus.
-
Tennis -- For many years, I was involved in running the tennis club at work,
where we had a challenge ladder every season, and occasional
tournaments and tennis parties.
I've written an essay
describing my experiences running the tennis club.
[Also see the Greencourt Software reference below.]
For those living near New York, it's also convenient to attend the
U. S. Open,
which I have done several times over the years.
-
Jazz -- If you live in the New York area, try
WBGO 88.3 FM
and WQCD 101.9 FM.
-
Politics -- Everyone who values the American dream of individual liberty
should check out the alternative to the Republicans and Democrats -- the
Libertarian Party.
Also visit the Cato Institute.
You can learn more about your political philosophy by taking
the "World's Smallest Political
Quiz".
-
Sudoku -- I occasionally work the daily puzzles
here.
A brief resume ...
-
BS, computer science,
University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign,
1980
-
MS, computer science,
University of California at Berkeley,
1982
-
Senior software engineer at
Telcordia Technologies
(formerly known as Bellcore,
and before that, Bell Labs -- before the 1984 Bell System breakup),
1982 - 2005.
-
Off and on for some years (since 1996),
I've been developing sports and recreation software, as
Greencourt Software.
Take a look and let me know what you think!
-
Starting in November 2007, I'm again doing some part-time
software development work (telecommuting!) for
Telcordia Technologies.
