Rob & LoisWelcome to my personal web site. With all things going digital, why not keep my ideas and experiences online too? Perhaps its ego to think these pages might be of value to someone else someday, but I’ll rationalize that it is better than organizing a box full of journals and albums. Besides, I am into information technology — it’s what a geek is supposed to do!  Pictured to the right is me and my wife, Lois, in a hot air balloon ride over Westboro, MA on a perfect evening in August 2007.
