I've been a software engineer for over 30 years. I live and breath geek stuff like Sci Fi, Space, computers retro tech. I try to keep my privacy while looking for folks to connect with here.

More of a Lurkey Turkey than a Tooty Fruity. I measure using GD&T for a living. It's fun!

I also like prog, metal, and indie tunes, video games, woodworking, and baking (breads, and pies).
