Hi from Portland Oregon

I was at another forum, Apteraforum, then it crashed about a month ago. Just did a search and there were some messages here.

Well I'm pretty curious about lots of things so I read some of the thread. Yes I'm very interested in keeping my greenhouse gas footprint to be small. I'm not a hypermiler but still drive carefully enough so that I manage to get around 54MPG in and around town with some freeway driving with my stock Prius. It's not hyper miler but not a leadfoot driver.

Now off to find other Apteraforum members who hang out here.

me. oh. I was a program manager for hi-tech company. My last project/program was a ultra low power RFID tag design. Experienced with things called VHDL, and SPICE. I've been put out to pasture about 3 years ago. Life is okay... been threatening to build ultra light human powered vehicle with maybe electric assist.

Lastly, I have no concept to what is meant by "think outside the box"?? WTH
I let my imagination be the limit.

thanks,
