Jeff's Story
Life
Went to university in Sudbury for computer science. During that time, I became good friends with Todd Grainger... an EDSS grad who also went to university up there. He was a key person who led me into a personal relationship with Jesus Christ... something that I never had when I grew up in the Mennonite church.

So the winter may be harsh, but the housing is cheap and we don't have the annoying traffic of southern Ontario. now I'm sub-contracted by my friends in Sudbury to do custom work for large companies who seem to be stuck in the 1980's as far as their computer systems go. I'm loving it. But I may go to teachers college next year.
I do get out once in a while too... the most interesting place would be a toss-up between Turkey and New Zealand. Actually, Turkey was better, but I'd recommend either.
