RSP is projected as an autobiography. Several chapters have been completed thus far, but much more must yet be done. What is presented here are the first drafts of what has been written. Some changes have been made, but many things have yet to be included, changed or elaborated upon from notes made aposteriori. Once I get a new scanner that has a slide adaptor, many pics will hopefully appear.

Each chapter covers a significant period of my life. The naming of the chapters was based on the tidbits of information contained in Notes.

There will be no chapter 13, as that may be the topic of a second work.

Spaces exist in the list so that I may include other chapters as reality unfolds, and I may be inspired to write a new chapter out of turn. Existence is certainly never static, rather a series of events which seem to unfold in the soap opera which is life. We can opt to become actual players on the stage, or to merely sit back in the comfy seats of the audience and watch reality as it evolves and mutates.

Please keep in mind that I am NOT a writer-- it is not my profession. I am a scientist, an observer of what I stumble upon along lifes road. Although I have always tried to be as exact and correct as possible with spelling and grammar, many mistakes / deviations from the norm and established rules will likely be found. I offer NO excuses!!
