About Me

I began my online life in 1986 first on FidoNet and then in 1991 the Internet.

I am an amateur historian of some note and regard with a recognized expertise in the holocaust in general and the Einsatzgruppen in particular. I have also contributed to the body of knowledge regarding Albert Speer. I am a long time contributor to the Nizkor Project and was the author and designer of an award winning website on the einsatzguppen tited The Einsatzgruppen Archives which is now defunct although a remnant remains on Nizkor.

I am a bibliophile with an extensive collection and am voracious reader.

I am also interested in Old Time Radio and have amassed a collection of 30,000+ episodes of old radio shows from the U.S., Canada, Great Britain, Australia and South Africa.

I enjoy walking, hiking, and geo-caching.

I do not watch television and seldom watch movies. Most evenings can find me in front of my computer or in my easy chair with a book, or listening to one of the thousands of hours of lectures on Christian theology that I have collected.

I was forced into early retirement with one disability and then collected another when it was discovered I harbored a benign but inoperable brain tumour.

I divide my time between she who must be obeyed and my family: my elderly parents, my children and my grandchildren.

A fifteen year old very dated bio of me can be found on The Nizkor Project. Not only the bio is old, so is the picture.

NOTE: I block all stupid and argumentative people.
