关于我
CURRENT MISSION
I want to see the world. I am retired with a wonderful airline travel benefit and must see this beautiful place we call earth.
ABOUT ME
I retired about 2 years ago from work as design engineer / consultant for communications infrastructure (construction work for airports). I survive now by virtue of a military pension (I was fighter pilot in US Navy) and my social security. In the last few years I have been very active in the cause of free Palestine and the BDS movement to end Israel's occupation and apartheid of the people of Palestine.
I love to travel and because of a wonderful airline pass privilege that I am eligible for as a result of working for a US Airline, I have traveled quite a bit.
PHILOSOPHY
well, I like the idea of socialism: people taking care of people.
* If we want a better world we will have to be better people.
* A better world has got to start somewhere. Why not with you and me.
