About Me :
I'm a grownup nerd living in the Boston burbs. I write computer programs for a living and plays for fun.
I'm married to a wonderful woman, and we share a nice little house with our daughter and our cats.
I'm a humanist, a technologist, an artist, and an idealist. I believe in reason, freedom, love, equality,
and democracy. (Did I mention that I'm
an idealist? I did, OK.)
I'm also a pragmatist and an empiricist. I reject ideology and dogma, especially when they conflict with
practical facts (i.e., pretty much always). I particularly hate willful ignorance, which tends to go hand-in-hand
with ideology and dogma.

Playwright News
A couple of tidbits of good news this week, on the playwriting front:
First, my play Get Out Of My American Way will be published as part of Baker's Plays Boston Theater Marathon IV collection, which is expected in early 2004. This play, about a nerd being laid off and the poor HR rep wielding the axe, was performed at the Boston Theater Marathon in 2002. (Coincidentally, I was laid off from Adobe just days before that performance!) It's one of my own favorites, and I'm very pleased to have it published.
Second, my new play Red State, White Hat, Blue Screen (aka Hack the Vote) will be performed at the Acme Theater New Works Winter Festival 2004 in Maynard, Massachusetts, in January! Red State... is a timely little piece about the intersection of technology and politics.
