2. SOME SOCIO-BIO-DATA TO 2010
I have been married twice for a total of 43 years. My second wife is a Tasmanian, aged 65. We’ve had one child: age 33 in 2010. I have two step-children: ages: 43 and 40 in 2010 and two step-grandchildren, age 17 and 15 in 2010. I am 66, am a Canadian who moved to Australia in 1971 and have written several books--all available on the internet. I retired from full-time teaching in 1999, part-time teaching in 2003 and volunteer teaching/work in 2005 after 35 years in classrooms. In addition, I have been a member of the Baha’i Faith for 51 years. Bio-data: 6ft, eyes-brown/hair-grey, Caucasian.

- Music
- In the three year period June 2002 to May 2005, I compiled periodically a list of my favourite music. It was an attempt to define, to give expression to, to list what has become for me a vast sea of pleasurable sounds produced in a number of genres of music. My first memories of listening to music were in about 1948, although I was exposed to music right from the word go in 1944 by two parents who played the piano. I would post the full list here, but it is too long. I would post here "a short list" of over 60 years of musical experience, musical pieces I have enjoyed from a longer list of music that gave me pleasure, but it is, as I say, obviously too long to include here.
