Hi Barrett,

I saw your diary today on DK about your work in improving the quality of science based journalism.  I'm interested.  I only have a few minutes to dash this off before I head out the door, so I apologize for the brevity of this note.

Quick CV:

B.S Aerospace Engineering, U.S Naval Academy
MBA, Loyola College
Naval Officer, Civil Engineer Corps for 8 years.

I've also spent many years in the semiconductor field, as well as in Electrical and Mechanical engineering.  I also have 3 years in a Chemical Engineering R&D environment with a large semiconductor company.

Here's a couple of my recent diaries on polling, as an example of my more technical writing, (I also do a lot of snark, which is probably not what you're looking for).
