Current Interests include the qualities and economics of human and cultural aging as well as their related logistics; in my instance those tangential relations are personal development and planning.

First and foremost, I am a citizen of the United States of America and in normal times, it is my hope that all citizens of the U.S. have access to air, drinkable water, food and private space. If I discover a citizens civil and human rights are being abused, I will do everything I can to defend their humanity. An American Citizen should be free to pursue their happiness without infringing on the rights of their fellows and be less concerned with abuse by a king or government representative.

When I am traveling beyond the borders of my native land- the USA, I show my host country great respect seeking to experience and understand the culture. While a guest in a foreign country, I will avoid criticizing its leadership, avoid social unrest and hope to build bridges of peace, understanding and perhaps mutual cooperation.
