Hi, I'm Morris Hirsch. Caution! My photo appears more pleasant than the actual person!

Some of my interests are:

• Programming. After programming for a living for twenty years, it would be bad if I did not enjoy it. I would like to share some Java techniques that may save you some time and trouble.
• Contradancing. Here are some local contra dances I get to often. Contradancing is so much fun, that some people contradance too often.
• Other Local Events. Aquidneck Island a nice place to live, offers lots to do, even after the summer visitors go home.
  Some events coming soon are Tall Ships 2000 and Black Ships Festival 2000
• Going Off the Island. Crossing a bridge does offer many more choices of nearby events.
• Steam Up! Engines of all sizes, from hand held models to mill engines, at The New England Steam and Wireless Museum will be running on Saturday 7 October.
• Writing. Mostly children's short stories, or more exactly writing them down in the morning, after telling them as bedtime stories. And making Silly T Shirts, if that counts as writing.
• I enjoy "old technology" such as steam engines, tube radios, cars old enough to have tube radios, and fountain pens. Of these, I have only fountain pens, they are the smallest.
• My family
• The amazing world around us. Really! My current favorite critter is -- The Hagfish See also more about The Hagfish
