My Philosophy: I borrow from Alan Kay: "The best way to predict the future is to invent it."

Hello!
My real name is Ryan Zink. I was a CompuServe user at the age of 7 (I always thought it appropriate that my username started with a 7) and have been user of the World Wide Web since 1992 when I was introduced to it by my CS teacher in high school. I have used Wikipedia since 2004 but only recently did I find the need to create an account. I have only edited a couple of articles and written this user page. Very boring, I know!

Hobbies
I choose to spend most of my time with family and work, and so personal pursuits take third place. I love science and math so from a young age I have been a hobbyist in radio electronics, computers, and other forms of technology but I believe I have yet to realize the full potential of my casual hobby-ing. A BMW fan, I previously owned a Z4 convertible (the 1995 movie GoldenEye made me a Bimmer enthusiast) and currently own an 328i.

Trivia

 * I was formally educated as an accountant but am a self-taught technologist.
 * I am a fan of Top Chef.
 * I shoot Nikon.
 * My favorite gate is XNOR. NAND is a close second.
