Xaos

Wondering who the heck I am. Well lets see, I was raised in rural southwestern Pennsylvania, I am Christian, a engineer and technician. I have worked around Research and Development most of my career. I enjoy technology and repairing and creating things. I am a big Sci-fi and history buff.
Married to a wonderful gal but not yet blessed with any children. My wife thinks I read too much and think too much.
Never been afraid to call a duck a duck or to speak my mind, even if it ticks someone off.

I also am a Libertarian, I hold great reverence for the principles that our country was founded on. I believe that government cannot legislate tolerance or morality.
