Plan: To become a logical impossibility, and then some.

Some of the original things I have done is to convert a MCNP commands manual into hyptertext. (MCNP is a Monte Carlo N Particle transport code produced by that adroit XTM group at Los Alamos National Laboratory .) I guess someone (besides me) might find it useful. I also did several UNIX tutorials and a code summary that can be found on the Advanced Nuclear Engineering Computational Laboratory [UCB] WWW page.

Me, in brief: I am a Nuclear Engineering graduate student at the University of California at Berkeley. My field of specialization is Computational Neutronics and Particle Transport Theory. I've completed my Master's Degree and am pursuing my PhD as a fellow in the DOE's Computer Science Graduate Fellowship Program.

I worked at Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory during the summer of 1995. I was coupling together a 2D, general geometry, multi-assembly neutronics code (GTRAN) and a cross section generating burnup code (SCALE). The summer before that, I was at Los Alamos National Laboratory working for the X-6 Division. My assignment was to add cross-section plotting capabilites to the Monte Carlo N-Particle transport code MCNP. The summer before that was spent at Argonne National Laboratory moving mainframe codes onto workstations. While at Berkeley, I am one of the computer systems administrators for the Advanced Nuclear Engineering Computer Laboratory. My other interests are varied and (unless I know you) none of your business.

 "If one is born and does not study, then it is the same as having not been
  born; if one studies and does not know the way, then it is the same as 
  having not studied; if one does not act upon what one knows, then it is the
  same as not knowing."  [Kaibara, Ekiken]

  Rene Descartes walks into a bar and has a drink.  The bartender
   asks him, "Would you like another?"  Descartes pauses and
   says, "I think not," and promptly disappears.

  A drunk walks into a bar, he says "ouch".
