History:
Moved to S.E.L. Michigan from Rhode Island in time for junior high school.
Met my first computer there (well, 2 teletypes, 1 with a tape punch). Graduated
from the University of Michigan (Ann Arbor) 1984, BS, Computer and Communication
Sciences. Fell in with a bad crowd: Software Decisions, Industrial Networking,
Ungermann-Bass, you know, OSI networking. Got bribed to move to CA & work at
Ungermann-Bass HQ programming Macintoshes & learning TCP/IP & friends. The
Macs are gone now: I'm an OS2/Windows/DOS internetworking wiz & first-line
manager who gets to take out frustrations when giving salary reviews.
Personal:
Married a German girl in '83 & brought her back to the states. Kid due in
April. Girl's name is Marianne; the kid, hell, I don't even know its sex.
I pick banjo while waiting for the next earthquake.

Favorite Beer: whatever the babe with the big bazoombas is drinking
BTS-member Since: around 1988
Electronic mail:
Actually got Mark Williams' Coherent running on my PC two years ago, but no
longer operating node bvocs continuously. I now log in to ttardis inter-
actively once a week (usually Saturday or Sunday).
History:
Worked for Ungerman-Bass, met a gorgeous redhead at a party, followed her home,
and woke up two weeks later in the Vegas county jail. Forced to take a job
with the screw-you organization because of some embarrassing photographs they
had, been there for three years. I could tell you what I've been doing for
the past three years, but then I'd have to kill you. Trying to to find a
different employer.
Personal:
This year I will make it to Madison and the babes go wild. I was being kept
by a succession of heiresses and showgirls and they wouldn't let me have money
for airfare to Madison in the past, but now they worship me and things will be
different. Except the babes still go wild. I am a phyically-superb-male-
speciman-than-makes-ladies-fall-to-their-knees. And as long as they're down
there... ;-) I lift weights twelve days a week, swim six days a week, and run
the other six. This was not an easy task: 20 hour work day + 6 hour round-
trip daily commute + 4 hour work-out + 9 hours of the babes going wild = -15
hours of sleep.

Favorite Beer: Not Sure (I've only been legal for 7 months and it
wouldn't be prudent to drink before that. :) )
BTS-member Since: Candidate
History:
Went to school in Oconto, WI and graduated in the top ten of my class.
That's not very impressive since the validictorian only had a 3.7 GPA and
60% of the class are dead-beats. I came to wonderful St. Norbert College
in '89 to receive a "well-rounded" education while going into debt. I have
currently completed my junior year and will be doing an internship this
summer with JT as my supervisor (well more of a average-visor). I had the
pleasure of meeting JT January 2 of this year (due to circumstances beyond
my control). He has since brought myself and a friend of mine into his
corrupted little environment. I basically am trying to learn everything
JT is willing teach me or at least tell me I should know.
Personal:
Not married and don't plan to be for a while. School and work is basically
my life.
Hobbies:
Weightlifting, hunting, fishing, volleyball, racketball, basketball, and
soon to be golf. (All of this is time-permitting of course.)
