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: Does Tauck follow up on comment cards?
I wish they would allow you to do your comments on-line. They don't give you a lot of room to write on the form, and my handwriting isn't the best. I do much better typing. (View Post)6 -
Re: Halong Bay 1 day excursion Nov. 30, 2023
The point several of us have been making, British, is that it would help the travelers if Tauck offered a pre-tour excursion to Ha Long Bay, rather than forcing everyone to make those arrangements on… (View Post)1
