Robert's Story
Robert finally got a steady girlfriend (Putt) at the age of 35. They were married a little over two years later and have been married for nearly 20 years! Bob and Putt have three boys and live in Fairbanks, Alaska.
His education includes John Marshall High School (yay!) and the University of Alaska Fairbanks. At UAF he received a BS in Physical Geography with an emphasis in Climate Change Sciences and Landscape Analysis. At the current age of 57, he is finishing up an MS in Natural Resource Management. He has spent most of his professional career working in the geographic information sciences: GIS, remote sensing, analysis and cartography.
He still prefers high energy employment with travel opportunities. He worked in the Bering Sea fisheries for over 20 years, the Alaska Fire Service for 6 years and currently conducts year-round field work in the Alaskan Arctic.

mercial fishing just to be on the water. However, he now lives in Fairbanks, 300 miles from the coast and does more terrestrial activities. He rides his bikes ... a lot: a road bike in the summer (YAY); and mountain bike (with studded tires) in the winter ( not so yay :-) and goes hiking with his family and friends.
Music: Robert still likes Joni Mitchell, Bob Dylan, Carol King, James Taylor and Cat Stevens :-) His new likes includes Deep Forest, James Asher, Amy Ippoliti, Krishna Das and Lady Gaga.
His book tastes include: The Hobbit (no surprises there), The Lord of the Rings, Bubba the Cowboy Prince (3 boys, eh?), The Club Dumas, etc...
Movies: He likes (no ... loves) Contact, Stardust, Spirited Away, Casablanca, Hanover Street, Porco Rosso and just about anything from Hiyo Miazaki. (...he is still a romantic!)
He doesn't watch much TV, but he does watch old and current series on DVD to avoid the commercials. These include Warehouse 13, The X-Files, Fringe and Nova.
