| Personal background |
|---|
| I am a field service engineer with a large company. I install, maintain and repair telemedicine and distance learning equipment. We use many means of transmitting this information but the one that I found the most interesting was with the satellites. All of the telemedicine systems installed in Mexico are transmited using satellites. (Of course they are all encrypted to insure patient cofidentiality.) I spent a good part of 3 years to install these systems and am proud to have completed a project that will assist mankind. I learned to speak the language there from the streets. Sometimes I was stationed in some very remote areas. Learning Spanish was necessary if you wanted to eat. There weren't any tourists in some of these cities so there was no need for the locals to understand English. I had to learn the hard way and fast but I enjoyed it. My work is finished there and I am back in the United States now. I am looking for work because the contract is finished. If anyone knows of anything that might fit my profile please contact me at Rex2_2002@yahoo.com Thank you! |
| Thoughts about SETI and SETI@home |

1. I believe life exists elsewhere maybe not as we understand life but it exists. How will we discover other lifeforms I haven't really thought extensively on. Maybe through accident or maybe through the SETI data being collected. The possible benifits and dangers of such a contact are endlist.
2. I am just glad to know that my little piece of data crunching may benifit in this endevor.
3. Attached is a photo of one of my proudest mements. All the parts were not delivered to Colima, Mexico and I had to have some brackets hand made in a local metal shop. The govenor of the state was coming to see the new telemedicine system and I had too many problems at this site. (I had problems with computer video, routers, audio, satellite and more.) But everything worked out and I had the connection established with Mexico City ten minutes before the governor arrived. The hospital director was very nervous as well as myself. He kept asking if it was going to be ready and I kept saying yes. My ingenuity and luck saved the day. When the governor left there was a big party in my honor. We even had homemade PULQUE, a beverage made frome the MAGUI plant. A great ending to a rough week. |
