I’m curious about the other participants of this forum. Why don’t we exchange information about ourselves? Only what we want to disclose and strictly on a voluntary basis, of course. Since it’s my idea, I’ll start it off.
Real Name: Russ Lingenfelter
Location: Rapid City, South Dakota, USA
Age: 43
Married, presently employed as a chemist by the Engineering & Mining Experiment Station at the South Dakota School of Mines & Technology. (Isn’t that a mouthful?) I’ve been riding motorcycles since I was 12 and will ride until I am no longer physically able to do so, probably three days after my death. I was born and raised in Montana and have lived in Montana, South Dakota, Idaho, Colorado, New Mexico, Arizona, and Wyoming.
I’ve worked as an analytical chemist, grocery store clerk, butcher, electrician, carpenter’s helper, plumber’s helper, ore truck driver, petroleum engineering technician, radio disk jockey, handy man, laborer, and a gandy dancer. For those of you who don’t know what a “gandy dancer” is, look it up on the web.
Well, that’s me in a nutshell. How about you guys?
P.S. If anyone wants to know more about where I work now, check out our web site at www.sdsmt.edu/es/emes
