Greetings. My page is a showcase of various items I have spent enough
time with to produce an article, invention, applet, or whatever. All of
my personal pages linked here must adhere to content and style rules set
down by the folks who pay the cost of making it available. I'd prefer
not giving up desktop real estate to travel bars -- not being a person
who frequents bars -- but I'm pleased with the opportunity to make
available some of my past work. Delusional perception of fame is a
powerful motivator for me.
Most of the links contain an element of
mathematics, particularly fractals, so you might want to start out by
viewing four of my
favorite fractal creations.
The first browser I ever used supported changing its animation window,
so I made some fractal animations
for it. I don't know of any currently-available browser that allows you
to mess with the window (why let customers turn off your advertising?)
but I've added a simple Java applet to display the movies for you.
Trying to figure out if I am the same person as...?

(M.S. Industrial Engineering/Operations Research)
- Eastman Kodak Company, Rochester, New York. 1980-1983

(M.S. Math)
- North Carolina State University, Raleigh, North Carolina. 1985-1986
- Temp at IBM, Durham, North Carolina. 1987 (My official employer
was some agency in Charlotte. I don't recall their name because I never
went there or had significant contact with them, other than signing on.)
