"Great minds discuss ideas;
average minds discuss events;
small minds discuss people."

"They who can give up
essential liberty
to obtain a little
temporary safety,
deserve neither liberty nor safety."

Benjamin Franklin, 17 February 1775

"The seeker-after-truth does not place his trust in any consensus, however broad or however venerable: instead, he subjects what he has learned of it to his hard-won scientific knowledge, and he scrutinizes, measures, and verifies ... The road to the truth is long and hard, but that is the road we must follow."

—  Abū ʿAlī al-Ḥasan ibn al-Ḥasan ibn al-Haytham, or Alhazen,
(أبو علي، الحسن بن الحسن بن الهيثم)
(c. 965 – c. 1040 CE), the father of the scientific method

I live in Provincetown, Massachusetts, which is located at the very tip of Cape Cod. I am both a technologist, having been a computer consultant for over 20 years, and a moderate conservationist, having served as Chairman of the Town of Provincetown's Conservation Commission.
