This fellow is going to be very useful. My goal for the weekend is to set up potential committees made up of our various members and give them tasks.

That's absolutely perfect. We're going to be getting a bit more organized and delegating leadership responsibilities to various members soon; would you prefer to be a member of a particular committee charged with some solving some problem? You describe yourself as more a follower than a leader; if so, you would still be very useful to many of the tasks we are taking on. Whatever level of authority you're comfortable with, we'll give you.

hi Barrett -

hmmm... tough question

i've been doing computer support for about the last 25 yrs - but i
rely on pblm solving abilities more than nerd abilities - i see
technology in the hands of most of society as a form of onanism but
not yet a danger - soon probably

i read a lot, over a wide range of genres but i only read headlines &
the onion when it comes to news

i have a ba in math & a teaching credential & i like to play sports -
squash, racquetball, basketball, baseball, touch football  ...

i taught maths in london for 2 yrs in the early '70's & then hitched
to israel & lived in a kibbutz for 2 yrs

in the late '70's i joined the peace corps & taught maths in botswana
for 3 yrs - i went back to botswana in the early '80's & stayed until
the mid '90's

i like living away from the states more than living in the states

i'm more of a follower than a leader

i wonder if you can distill any skills from that skeleton?
