I just joined this community last night, and I'm just curious about some of the people here. I'm only 19 years old, but I'm more interested in all things space than anyone I've ever met. Just out of curiosity, what are people's ages in this forum?

I am 34 I have an ex-wife and 4 kids. I work as an electrician. Wiring everything from houses to industrial plants. I've been interested in space forever. I used to lie in my back yard at night and stare at the sky to observe the rare passage of a satellite usually 2 or 3 a night. Oh how times have changed. I followed voyager with national geographic. I am an avid computer buff. I tend to fix computers after the "profesional" works on my friends computers. The pro gets the money and then i fix the problem after they leave go figure. I taught myself to program BASIC when i was 8 on a c64/tsr-80/apple. Oh how times have changed. I am a ham (amature) radio operator. I also prospect for gold and my most recent endeavor is Wyoming opal...Boy did i let the cat out of the bag... I love this forum and thank all involved for the wonderful intelligent stimulating discussions on here and the huge investment of time. bringing about the great pictures from mars that you can't get anywhere else. You guys rock. mmb rocks. This universe is a fascinating place.
It blows my mind to fathom we have a rover on another planet millions of miles away and here we are playing with the pictures, each in our little homes, and via the internet we are connected to each other and jpl and the rovers. fascinating. scott |
