Education:

Employment:

  • Grumman Aerospace Corporation - Thermodynamic analysis on Lunar Landing Module.
  • Lockheed Martin - Mathematical analysis and modeling, related software development and test for large systems
  • Retired in 2004 and have continued with my 30 year hobby of analyzing Relativity Theory and attempting to devise experiments which can distinguish between the Lorentz and Einstein viewpoints.

Personal:

  • Married (3 children and 10 grandchildren).
  • Would like to find a university with an optics lab and people who understand the experiment proposed in one of my papers (Fresnel Drag vs. Einstein Velocity a Case for Further Investigation), agree that it is worth performing, and work with me to get funding and actually perform the experiment.
  • See published papers below.
  • Recently (June 28, 2009) wrote a poem in about 10 minutes (see Modern Physics abstract).  Not sure where it came from so quickly.
