I've been reading SciFi books since the 5th grade. Watched TOS when it originally aired on NBC. When I had access to a C-band satellite dish I would record the direct feed of DS9 episodes on a HiFi VCR when they first aired. The sound checks after the color bar and before the episode were performed in the first seasons by the late René Auberjonois and when Michael Dorn Joined the show he would do the sound checks. I had a Paramount surround sound decoder, so I could check my speaker wiring.

I also like to grow a vegetable garden in the spring until the first frost. I grow chili peppers from cool to the hottest, and tomatoes.
