I'm an avid reader ? primarily non-fiction and science related (with an occasional novel thrown in ? I just read Steinbeck's "East of Eden"). My main interests are human evolution (trying to understand our human nature and how it evolved) and environmental issues (particularly global warming) I love the both the out-of-doors and the vibrancy of cities like New York, San Francisco, London, Paris, etc. I'm really at home in the wilderness and am very self-sufficient. I also enjoy traveling, having visited a good part of Europe.
