About Me
I'm a life-long resident of Cheatham County. Have a BS in physics from APSU, a MBA from Vandy, and a large chunk of a Ph.D. in theoretical physics from Wake Forest, though I don't actually use either in my day-to-day job (high-performance research computing at Vanderbilt).
I'm a moderate (r)epublican. I can't quite say "R" nowdays because ideology, fear, and anger seems to be getting the better of common sense. When Reagan is too liberal for you, you've gone down the wrong path.
