A man's tongue is a glib and twisty thing...

Plenty of words there are, all kinds at its command—

With all the room in the world for talk to range and stray.

And the sort you use is just the sort you'll hear.

 

—Aeneas (via Homer via Fagles), The Iliad, Book 20

Welcome

Céad míle fáilte. I created this site to host some of my projects, to share some of the work I do, and to be a laboratory where I can try new things.

Personal Goals

♦ keep learning
♦ improve public understanding of human–environmental interaction
♦ work for safe communities and healthy environments
♦ be near or on the water

 

Web design and coding

Site design and art by M. Craghan.

I taught myself HTML when I was teaching a university course in 1995. I have tried to keep up. This entire web site is hand coded with Notepad++ simply for the interesting challenge of doing it.

All site pages were successfully checked as HTML5 by the W3C Markup Validation Service.

The original source for the background image on some of these webpages is,

small image of the Library of Congress map of Railroads in New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Delaware and Maryland; drawn and engraved for Doggett's Railroad Guide & Gazetteer.

"Railroads in New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Delaware and Maryland; drawn and engraved for Doggett's Railroad Guide & Gazetteer" (1848), at the Library of Congress Geography and Map Division.

Diversions, Pastimes, Recreation

THIS IS WHERE to find interesting things that appeal to me. Look here for experiments, things that are a little fun, some gunkholing, records of adventures, and a little glim.
