Hello, thank you for visiting my user page. My name is John F. Martin. I was born in 1948. After being an unremarkable student at North Side High School in Denver, Colorado, I served in the US Army as a tactical micro-wave communications technician in Vietnam from 1968 to 1969. After the war, er um 'police action', I attended Metropolitan State College Denver simply to collect educational benefits from the Veterans Administration. I later transferred to South Dakota School of Mines and Technology in Rapid City, SD where I earned the degrees of BS math with school honors (1974) and MS math (1976). I then worked as a software engineer writing low level real-time assembly language programs for such projects as military flight training simulators, automated optical inspection systems, CD-RW controllers, MS-DOS SCSI device drivers, blah, blah, blah... I can safely say that all the "drain-bamaging" code that I have written most likely resides in various landfills by now. After a heart attack, I am now retired (since 1993) and do math and music projects to occupy the time. My wife Lynn routinely accuses me of being "all mathed-up" and hence, my mathed-up screen name. We happily reside in Littleton, Colorado with our zero lovely children and two cats in the yard.
