Contact Information

NRTI as we knew it is no more, and I don't know what will happen in the future. Technically, I'm still employed by the College, though am enjoying a paid hiatus, and working on everything I couldn't work on when I was spending 70 hours a week running the Program, like cleaning up from the tornado that hit, what, 7 years ago now? I'm also commissioned with a nearby county agency, actually answering to one of the more popular instructors, so I'm still trying to keep my hand in.

I'll continue to post information and news from grads and friends, and also want to keep current with LE news and references.

My College phone and e-mail are pretty much out of service, so I'll be setting up yet another account , so we can stay in touch.

Take-Offs are Optional, Landings Are Not

Young Rhodes Tower falcon dies as it tries first flight
By Jeffrey Sheban

THE COLUMBUS DISPATCH

One of two young peregrine falcons hatched this spring atop the Rhodes Tower died this afternoon in its first flight, witnesses said.
The 5-week-old bird hit the sidewalk in front of the state building after falling off a ledge on the 41st floor around 2 p.m.
"It just fell down. It wasn't even flapping its wings," said Dave Stephens, who works in the building. "That's a shame to see one of them die."

I suppose the take-away from this is it's better to do something, anything, instead of nothing.  Or don't roost on a government building, it might infect you with indecision and lack of foresight.
