    Wow, everybody else gave a lot more detail than I thought of giving.
    OK - here goes: I grew up in Lancaster County, PA in a Swiss/English
    family. After high school, I went to Vassar where I was a member of
    the first freshman class of men. My degree is in art. Since then I
    have been: short-order cook, bartender, truck driver, state
    government bureaucrat, manager and lead programmer for a major
    vertical market software company, staff computer consultant,
    independent computer consultant, proprietor of a bonsai nursery,
    photographer, painter, student of country blues guitar (Jorma
    Kaukonen was my first teacher), and part-time jeweler. Let's see -
    did I forget anything ? Oh yeah - I was in the Navy for 3 months
    until I decided the Navy and I weren't made for each other. The jury
    is still out on jewelry - maybe we're made for each other, maybe we
    aren't. Right now I'm back to photography and painting again. My
    wife wants to know when I plan to get a real job. My answer ? NEVER
    AGAIN !
