I have been involved with Free Software and how people, organizations 
and populations use, create and experience information. I enjoy The 
Prescott National Forest as my "office" and The Valley of The Sun as a 
home away from home. Personal systems run either Fedora, Project Atomic, 
Android or OpenBSD.
