Who, me?
Well, I've been poking around different corners of the Net since at least 1991 or so. Folks from the Usenet group alt.callahans might remember me under the moniker Merlinvin.

I've been mucking about with computers since the 70s, though. I spent a good chunk of the 80s splitting uranium nuclei as a submarine reactor operator in the US Navy (hey, where else can you get *paid* to sleep fifty feet from a chain reaction?); once I realized that nuclear power wasn't going to be my Field of Dreams, I went back to computing. I'm particularly interested nowadays in the various Agile development techniques.
