Arnold's Story
Let's see - after high school, went on to UBC for a BSc in Physics/Astronomy, though I did also spend a year in there at university in Germany (Goettingen). After that, exiled myself to Ontario to do Grad Studies (Queen's U in Kingston), where I met lots of friends and my wife, Olena. Finally finished my PhD (highly unmotivated at the end of it, let me tell you), and started looking for a teaching position. Returned from exile back to BC. Got a replacement teaching job in Nanaimo (Malaspina College, now Vancouver Island University). Moved sideways in 1999 to a software company and am the Senior Systems Analyst there now.

94, I began taking more of role in the family business with my brother Harald and our wives. So, if anyone is looking for custom built homes in the Lower Mainland, drop me a line.
Still playing my sax, with the Frontenac Community Band while in Kingston and the Nanaimo Concert Band now.
Olena and I have been married since 1990, and have 2 girls (now 13 and 2). Along with 4 beagles and 4 cats, we fill out our home well. We run an organic-based vegetable farm in Errington (just outside of Parksville), as well as blending organic teas and spices. Come by at the Errington Farmers Market in the summer and various craft shows in the pre-Christmas season.
