For those who know me from my professional life (I'm a Chartered Engineer), know what a complete filing freak I am. All graduates that have helped me out, or ...

Earlier this month I moved this blog back over to WordPress in an act of madness. I hated it and did little blogging in that time. In considering why I ...

Owen touched up on something about the length of blog posts. As I read his 3 paragraphs I think he's definitely correct about the length of post that I enjoy ...
