Worked for 31 years in the environmental engineering and enforcement field. I hold advanced credentials in the field of wastewater treatment, emergency response, pollution control and environmental sampling. I possess an Associates in Applied Science and a BS in Biology. I am a Grade 3A certified wastewater treatment plant operator. I have participated in many civil and criminal environmental crime actions with a government agency. I have a long standing personal interest in the field of energy and have studied the peak oil concept for many years and I have given many lectures on peak oil and energy alternatives throughout Long Island NY. These include SUNY Stony Brook and several Town Halls and I have been interviewed on Hofstra University Radio. I also had worked in many energy production facilities while in the field of pollution control.

I have several solar energy systems installed on my house - the first installed in 1981. I personally despise misinformation and BS especially in the field of energy, economics and monetary policy and I am always willing to point out and correct BS when detected. I have learned economics on the street for many years and I share the point of view as an Austrian economist.
