I've always been interested in mathematics. When I was in my teens I got interested in computer programming, and learned PL/I and IBM mainframe assembly language. When PC's came into the world, I learned masm. Then, in the 1990's, I got interested in developing my own website, and learned HTML and ASP. In 2005 I started editing Wikipedia, and in the process, I learned how to leverage the wiki structure.

Contact
To contact me, edit my "community" user talk page. But first, why do you want to contact me? If you have an idea for a page in this wiki, just add it. If you want to fix something, just fix it. If you want to comment on a page, just edit its discussion (a.k.a. "talk") page. Thanks!

Teaching
When I was in my 20's, I taught a class in the Basic computer language at my local community college. I enjoyed teaching the class, but the job was very time consuming, so I didn't continue. Now I'm in my 50's, and I have tutored part time on Tutor.com, but my "day job" has become more demanding of late, so I more or less gave that up, too.

Learning
One of the things I enjoy most about teaching is... learning! Perhaps paradoxically, the opportunity for learning is greatest while teaching. How does this happen? A topic needs to be organized in my own mind before I can present it. Or a student will ask an interesting question.
