my parents sent me to christian schools in the 80's.. i resented them at the time. i put my self through college in hard sciences after i left them at age 17. at college i was there to learn the science ignored all political science type courses..

discovered some good writers at age 18-22 who were formative.

at age 13 was reading time life UFO mysteries archaelogy books. and checking them out on my BMX bike back then.

i feel like i dodged a huge programming bullet by default. but not entirely. i learned early on to question everything somehow. and it's served me well

peace
