Well, don’t look at ME....LOL.

I just design computer models. You know, climat change, apochryphical scenarios, death of the species, that sort of thing...

(Actually, the most technologically advanced thing I have ever done was find a way to predict the bore temperature in a canon, at the start of rifling, given an infinitely variable firing pattern under any climate coditions. It took me darn near a year, and involved most of the computers at ALL of the national labs. And I wasn’t sure that I could do it, until I did. Resovled it down to 74 simultanious equations - trivial even on a palm pilot).

(Which is why I laugh at climat models. It took ALL THAT to predict the temperature of a hunk of iron.)

(An you write good books.)

Hey, copy and send me all the really cool classified stuff. You can use my PO Box. I’m sure it will be okay.
