As of Aprl 2013, I have moved to Boeing Research and Technology in the Seattle area.
Consequently, many of the links to my work below will break until I host these pages elsewhere.

  "We choose to go to the moon in this decade and do the other things,
not because they are easy, but because they are hard, because that
goal will serve to organize and measure the best of our energies and
skills, because that challenge is one that we are willing to accept,
one we are unwilling to postpone, and one which we intend to win, and
the others, too."
— John F. Kennedy 1962
"My electric light inventions have brought me no profits,
only forty years of litigation."
— Thomas A. Edison ca.1920

"Being busy does not always mean real work.
The object of all work is production or accomplishment

as well as perspiration. Seeming to do is not doing."
— Thomas A. Edison

"I am proud of the fact that I never invented weapons to kill.— Thomas A. Edison
