Introduction	My weblog is named "Multiplication by Infinity", because "Division by Zero" was taken ... and "Division by Infinity" makes me feel very small ...

And Pure Mathematics, Computer Science, Applied Mathematics, Experimental Physics, Engineering, Astronomy (not Cosmology so much), Space Exploration and Lunar Colonization. I am a Rutgers 1979 Mechanical Engineer (Pi Tau Sigma) and Rutgers 1989 MBA. ("I study Politics and War that my children may study Mathematics and Philosophy." - 2nd U.S. President John Adams) I've already studied enough Politics and War and Economics for one lifetime, and so it's time for Math and Science
