The links provided below are currently only a very small portion of the research I've done on any given subject.  Having been involved with the internet for 13 plus years, I have amassed nearly a library of information on a myriad of subjects.  I have been known to refer to my computer as a “Magic Box” that allows me to do almost anything I want to do, talk to almost anyone I want to talk to and to be almost anywhere I want to be. I have recently made reference to this particular computer as “Frankenstein’s Etch-A-Sketch” because it contains two hard drives and a conglomeration of old and new parts.

The research below is widely varied for several reasons; my lifestyle of world travel and the continuance of education has put me in contact with people, places and things that would ordinarily have been something out of my reach. I have only recently begun the daunting task of retyping much of the work I have done over the years for both scholastic requirements as well as personal interests.   I am thankful beyond words for the multitude of opportunities that have been presented to me in my life and I have struggled to learn something from all of them and from everyone involved with that endeavor.
