I've traveled much of my life, following my curiosity about how we live, what's important and what it means to be a human being. But I'm settled now in Sonoma County and loving it. I spend weekends mostly outside, often on my bicycle or hiking, going to the beach... Exploring northern CA is one of my favorite weekend activities, or just driving up the coast.

Monday through Friday I design solar systems for new companies in this growing industry, while training them how to do it themselves. Nice work and I'm never bored.

I'm 63 and when I look in the mirror I see a man my age, though others always seem surprised. Either way, I'm definitely not as spry as I used to be, but that's alright for this grandfather.

I'm really just enjoying myself.

Lots of things

You know, I really don't know.

Recent reads: Cutting For Stone (fantastic), The Greatest Show on Earth, Richard Dawkins (had to bone-up on my evolution), Shantaram, The Baroque Cycle, Neil Stephenson, lots of fun, The Elegant Universe (I'm a lay lover of astrophysics; if you ever need to buy me a gift, a telescope would be nice), A Thousand Splendid Suns, The God of Small Things...

Jazz, world music and indie, classic rock, blues, anything live except country.

Favorite food is Italian, Middle Eastern, Indian, Thai, barbequed chicken with mashed potatoes and corn on the cob, and oh I love good sushi.

My work, I love it;
Intelligent conversation, and curiosity;
Humor;
A woman who can take the mickey out of me;
My bike;
Life

Global warming, how we got here and why we're not doing enough about it.
Human nature, and where we're going.

Home, relaxing from the work week, I may love it, but I need some recovery time. I can be coaxed out, but I prefer Saturday night for that.

I'm better with a woman in my life.

If you're looking for someone a little different who respects and appreciates others. Everything is short term in the beginning, but would prefer someone looking for the rest of your life.
