In my spare time, I play guitar, do a lot of photography, go ice skating, snowboarding, hiking, camping and cycling depending on the season and weather.

I have in the last year or so taken an active interests in human rights issues and politics, and contacted a fairly large number of political people to ask about their legislation proposals and views.  Copies of these letters, and the replies, are mostly in my blog.  It’s probably got something to do with having lived in Berlin...

I like Mathematica and WoW.

2. 2.The frontier areas of science and technology can be identified by an absence of legislation.
   

3. 3.If you are working in the best interests of the community, you will always be able to find someone eagerly pointing out which rules you are breaking.
