About me

Introduction Why Silver Panic? I like history, especially Colorado history. In a prescient move, my great-great-great-grandfather sold his silver mine well before the panic of 1893 and moved to the newly-opened (er, stolen) lands of northwestern Colorado where I still live today.
Favorite Movies Wizard of Oz, Letters from Iwo Jima, The Prestige, Seven Brides for Seven Brothers, The Fog of War, Singing in the Rain, and Hamlet (Kenneth Branagh's).
Favorite Music Beethoven, Mozart, Sousa, barbershop, jazz, 1890s, folk, Smothers Brothers, rock, spirituals, musicals, and Christmas carols.
Favorite Books The Bible (although I'm an atheist--what a rip-roaring tome) and nearly anything related to history. Or science. Or science fiction.
