About Me...

I'm NewTek's non-resident cynic and Nietzsche fan. When I'm not creating software and crashing machines I enjoy skiing and Ultimate frisbee.

I have been coding in C, with forays into 680x0 assembler, PostScript, and ARexx. I am now creating plug-in modules for LightWave3D on Amigas, SGIs and various Windows machines and trying to help out other plug-in developers when possible. Anyone interested should send a message to listserv@netcom.com with "subscribe lwplugin-l" and in the body. The developer docs can be obtained via anonymous ftp from ftp.netcom.com, /pub/lw/lwsdk , or browse the Lightwave3D Software Development Kit

I also do HTML document creation using my trusty text editor, the way real men do it. VRML, on the other hand is best created with a few handy Lightwave3D plugins I wrote. If you have a VRML browser, come over to my Home Space. If you don't, get one!

VRML could be even cooler than HTML RSN, like in visionary Neal Stephenson's must-read novel Snow Crash.

I have been getting into this trendy WWW thing, and have found the following interesting sites:

• Random Number CD -- High Quality Noise
• E-Postcards
• DigiCash's ECash Home
• Xerox PARC Map Viewer
• Current Weather Maps-Movies
• Noam Chomsky Page
• White House
