Just retired after 42 years of chemistry teaching at uni in one form or another. Have worked on six editions of chemistry textbooks as contributor or coauthor. Very catperson. Strong believer in individual freedom to do what the fuck you want, as long as you're not significantly harming others. Too many hobbies: high-power model rocketry, astronomy and telescope making, gardening (tomatoes and peppers), metalworking and foundry, some woodworking, fixing things round the house, reading (Heinlein, S. King, F. Forsyth, Asimov, and some others). Love Harry Potter, to which I was only introduced about three years ago! Have all the books and the movies (except Fantastic Creatures, gotta get that one sometime).
