See above. Right now any extra time I have is in fighting and standing up for our perilous democracy.

I love learning and so for some eight years have been going to Olli Berkeley and taking seminars there. It enhances my life. Before that I was attending Sacramento State University's Renaissance program and also took some seminars at Olli U.C. Davis.

My life is very busy and I like it that way. I enjoy meeting people from all over the world and U.S. and making new friends.
