How I Spend Too Much of My Time: There are web pages. There are graphics programs. There is Mac OS X with its Unix underpinnings, Apache web server, PHP, and MySQL. Interface builders await investigation. And when I am not occupied with those, there is genealogy.

Our Town

Boston, Massachusetts, U.S.A.

Population: about 676,000

Local Weather
