I was born in Ghent, Belgium. There, I started school and learned French and Flemish.
In my childhood my family moved to Argentina where I learned Spanish. We lived near the city of Buenos Aires.
After I graduated from University [UNLP], in Radio Communications, I came to the US (probably one of the best choices I made in my life). I first lived in New Jersey, then in Warwick, a beautiful small village in New York, where I lived with my dog Flicka, a wonderful 7 years old female Golden Retriever. Au Revoir Flicka.
Recently, in the summer of 1997, I moved to Texas. I lived in Ingram, Kerrville [1 2 3] and now in Austin. What a wonderful place! But, if you intend to drive your car in Texas, have a look at this driving survival guide. I have travelled to Dallas, San Antonio, Fredericksburg, Houston, Galveston, Round Rock, Georgetown, Salado. I also visited a very interesting place in Blanco Texas: The Christ of the Hills Monastery in New Sarov, where I saw the Weeping Icon weep.

Astrology (not the one you know). It uses the Sidereal Zodiac and also a lot more. Check this site.
Reading, I like to read books that have a purpose ... no patience for loose talk. Does anyone have a comment about this?
Music, traveling, hiking, horseback riding ...
Architecture. A different kind (of course). Do you wish to know what makes a place [a room, a house, a street, a park, a town] alive or dead? Why do most modern houses cause divorce? What's wrong with most modern office buildings? Then read "The Timeless Way of Building", "A Pattern Language" and "The Oregon Experiment" by Christopher Alexander .... published by Oxford University Press.
Philisophy/Religion. Here is a very interesting site: G.I. Gurdieff and a very important poem.
Here is another interesting site: ECK and one more:The Meru Project
An
interesting author: I. Velikovsky (1,
)

Mexico. There I visited, amomg many other places, the "Museo Nacional de Antropologia", the Pyramid of the Sun and that of the Moon.
In France, Conques (1 2 3 4 5 6 7), Moissac (1 2 3 4 5), Najac (1), Rocamadour (1 2 3 ), Notre Dame de Chartres (1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15), Notre Dame de Paris (1 2 3 4 5 6)

San Francisco (CA): #1, #2, #3, #4, #5, Live from Fisherman's Wharf, a live view of it from Nob Hill and a satellite view of it, Sausalito (CA), Carmel (CA), Stonington (ME), .......
The
feature all computers have
and which is most beneficial to your life
is the OFF button,
use it.
A paperless office/society is like
a bathroom without toilet paper,
an idea
that can only creep in the skulls of people without any common sense.
Unfortunately, they are the majority and they breed.
What do computers share with paper clips? ...... an I.Q. of ZERO
What's the difference between computers and road kill? ..... Road kill has an I.Q. greater than zero.
A man acts exclusively from forces within him,
never from outside causes unless he allows it.
A
different view of the Colombine killings
which does not rehash the same old bankrupt ideas.
These researchers need our help, the government will not help them.
Our
weather without all the hoopla the Weather Service creates
to look important.
Satellite views of our earth.and
a few more here.
Some of my favorite singers: Nancy
Cook, Terri Garrison, also Carol
Elliott (and here
again). Here is another one
too, among many others.
And a special site: MIDI Heaven!
