Any problem has an obvious easy to implement WRONG solution.

Corollary: Most REAL solutions are neither obvious nor easy.

Corollary #2: The SOLUTION to most problems gives rise to a minimum of

two new problems at least one of which is worse than the original problem.

adapted from a quote by H.L Mencken:

"There is always an easy solution to every human problem - neat, plausible, and wrong."

My interests include (but are not limited to):

                Kite flying                    Bicycle riding

                Kite building                Music (both listening and playing)

                Rock climbing             Science Fiction & Fantasy

                History                        War games (strategic simulations)

                Snowboarding            Sailing

Thus these pages will mostly contain information on the above.
