Personal Stuff

Some things about myself, Derek Piper.

I'm 33 years old, and happily married with a family. Currently living and working in Bloomington, Indiana, which is a scenic college town in the middle of Indiana. Indiana University is where I work.

I am a permanent resident of the USA now, having moved from England in July of 1999 - 10 years ago now. I will probably do the naturalization / citizenship thing some time. Might be useful to be able to vote, maybe not. I have a collection of US / UK word differences that might amuse you.

I work with computers, and have done for many years. They are also my hobby as well. I am happy to consider myself a 'geek'. To me, it's all good.
