I've been reading about Peak Oil, and it scares me enough that I really
want to dedicate my time to making a tiny little difference in the future
of how we deal with energy.  Thus, I am currently

   SEEKING
    A JOB

somewhere in the alternative/sustainable energy sector.

Willing to tackle almost any technical pursuit and expand my skill set.
My strengths are geared more toward the real-life practical than high theory,
but I can hold intelligent conversation in either area.  What I might do
in the field could really be anything from nailing down PV mounting brackets
on an icy roof to oven-testing IGBT modules in a warm lab, although I would
most welcome an entry opportunity to work with embedded systems and power
control.  In general, something to help enable widespread energy independence.

If you share my passion about this, are local in the Boston/north area, and
need a competent, dedicated hands-on tech guy you're willing to train into
your specific endeavors, please ask for resumes and/or discussion!  My prior
background emphasizes IT and network security, but informally covers a wider
range of technologies.  You can likely get some sense of where I'm at from
this Prius project, but that's only a segment of the things that interest me.

at either avian.org or techno-fandom.org is the best means.  Spam filtering
at the latter tends to be somewhat less aggressive...]
