"If I had a penny for every time someone asked for 'A few moments out of your busy schedule...' I wouldn't NEED to have a busy schedule. Hmph."

Professionally, I'm an Astronomer and Project Scientist on the faculty of Steward Observatory, and the Center for Astronomical Adaptive Optics, and an Associate Research Scientist in the Optical Sciences Center, at the University of Arizona.
