Thanks All.

Originally from Glenfarg, I lived in Colinton, Nairn, Gullane, and on a farm near Turnhouse. I went to visit California in 1981 and got stuck! Still a Scot at heart.

Over here I've been lots of things including a floor refinisher, a professional photographer, a Unix system administrator, and a programmer (mostly C).

I play guitar and mandolin, I cook, and I have a Shetland pony.

Best,
Mark.

Excellent! What drew you into BOINC?

And now that we're chums...um...what's that on your head?

Started with SETI when I was working at UC Berkeley in the 1990s. Recently added the Enigma project and looked for a new team--happy to find you folks.

On my head is a ten-day-old kitten we found in a box in our garage.

The nickname is a bit of a pun that harks back to the "Lament for the Makers" by the Scots poet William Dunbar.
