Since we can't update the "About me" field, I thought I'd put some information here.
I'm a retired electrical engineer, having spent the majority of my career in communications. I hold 32 US patents, mostly on communications subjects.
Although it was not the focus of my career work, I have a decent knowledge of power distribution, both in the US and internationally, especially for residential service. I also have some knowledge of three-phase and single-phase electric motors and their control systems, but mostly only smaller motors maybe up to 10HP.
After I retired, I took classes in woodworking and developed some level of skill. I've taught woodworking classes, short courses, in veneering, carving, dovetails, and box-making. I’ve built a lot of furniture for our home, to the point where my wife told me she doesn’t have room for any more in our house😊
My wife, Judy, and I travel a couple of times a year and I document our trips on our blog, www.mikeandjudytravel.com

Re: Global Entry Renewal Process
I think what Claudia meant is that your Global Entry card can be used as your ID instead of a driver's license or passport. It's a government issued ID. You can also use your VA ID card bec… (View Post)2 -
Re: Jordan and Egypt- specifics on Tauck provided security
When I went to Egypt, there was a cop with a handgun with us at all times. That's not going to protect you from terrorists but will help against crime. (View Post)1
